You can count yourself as one of the lucky ones as I had many classmates in college who lost the ability to type before they graduated because of RSI. While I’m no medical professional, I’ve thus far avoided serious RSI by 1. Not typing very much. I spend most of my time thinking and a minority of time typing. 2. Periodically change work area. I have the luxury of having the option of typing in an office, a laboratory or outside under a tree and frequently move around. Even if you don’t have this much flexibility, try adjusting your chair up and down, move your monitor around, etc. EDIT: I make no guarantees these things have any correlation with my avoidance of serious RSI symptoms.
