RE: Speech Recognition for Coding

["Jill Gallagher" <jmg1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I was also having problems with my wrist, but I hadn't thought of switching
my mouse to the other hand.  Instead, I got a wrist rest for my mouse pad.
I don't know if you tried that, but it helped me a lot.  It took about a
week for the pain to subside, but as long as I use it, it helps.
