Thanks! Does that mean that you're only able to work in a very specific environment?

I'm considering ordering a new laptop, and am very sad to think that i won't be able to use its laptop/portable functionality, since more than 30 mins without a special keyboard results in pain.

I'm lucky enough to be working from home -- though in the office I had an adjustable desk, which I definitely miss. Being able to fine-tune the height was very nice. I tend to end up working on my laptop keyboard anyway, at the dining room table or whatever, just to switch things up even though it's hard on my hands; the Moonlander is pretty portable though, so I can take that upstairs or to whatever table I'm at. My work computer is a MacBook so it's definitely doable with the laptop!

The other thing I didn't think to mention is that I've used a variety of wrist and arm braces to varying effects -- the one I like best offers mild wrist support and also stabilizes the thumb joint, which was giving me trouble. However, if I get a lot of ulnar neuropathy bothering my pinkie and ring finger, I've an immobilizing elbow brace to sleep in which tends to help as well.

Anecdotally, that thumb joint (I think it's the CNC joint or something like that) gets very unhappy with me when I text on my phone too much, so it's not just computer usage that causes problems!
