Thanks all
What a wealth of information - even more than what I could find on "carpal tunnel" sites!
One thing that strikes me after reading this thread and refecting on my own case, I think the "needle that's breaking the camel's back" is the computer mouse. When I think of painting, certainly it can be repetive, but I don't consider that much so, as we are always changing motions by cleaning our brush, mixing paints stopping to look at the work/subject. Using the computer however is extremely repetitive, and that is taking our stressed-out hand to past the limit.
I don't know if this has any basis, but at least I know that out of things I perform, using the mouse is certainly one task I could perfom with the other hand. It certainly can't hurt.
