So. About 12:30 PM today I grabbed my mouse to get to work on something and my arm just went nuts. Crippling pains shooting up to the shoulder, tingling once I let go... The whole nine yards.

So, after thinking my career was over for about an hour (I tried several times, same result), I ran out and bought a Logitech Trackball.

Wow.

Amazing. No pain, I picked up the movements right away, and I simply love it.

I'm still going to have the arm looked at, but I'm kicking myself for not switching sooner. We all know mice can be just awful for us.

Rotator Cuff?

Trackball huh? I will have to G it and see what they are...

Feel better.

[ladidah]

OK, I am back. LOL!

I have one of those I just had to look down at my mouse...

I have used a track ball for years. I use a track ball mouse with my laptop. Yes, I carry that bugger along with my laptop.

Absolutely can not stand to use that little finger pad on my laptop.

Kensington makes a very good one that is programmable and has a scroll ring. After wearing out a few Logitech devices I went to this brand. I really like Logitech, but they don't hold up under industrial strength use.

I get wrist pain so I use this mouse and love it (vertical 3 wireless)

I do miss the scroll wheel for sure. I only made a $27 investment, so I still have room to upgrade
