Have you checked Dr. Sarno's approach for RSI and related problems. If you have tried all those options and they didn't work you should definitely give a try.

You can check a story very similar to mine: http://www.pgbovine.net/back-pain-guest-article.htm

Disclaimer: I am CS PhD student in a top tier US school. Suffered from RSI, tried everything. Was cured by Dr. Sarno's technique.

I can second this: I spent years looking in utterly the wrong direction with things, even making this: http://tiledtext.com so that I could program with motion sensors instead—then someone recommended to me (for a second time, since I ignored it the first time) Dr. Sarno's work.

BTW: that you're left hand started in so soon after is probably a good indication that this isn't entirely physical!

Sarno's stuff works (as you'll find plenty evidence of on the internet (e.g. http://www.satori.org/rist/)), but the theory it's framed in is pretty bad, so be prepared for that...

An alternative talking about the same stuff without annoyingly trying to theorize so much is (check out the reviews, you'll see the title is quite misleading): http://www.amazon.com/Rapid-Recovery-Back-Neck-Pain/dp/09669...

I was also cured from RSI by Dr Sarno's approach. I highly recommend you give this serious consideration.
