It may indeed have nothing to do with your computer use, Mark. Eight  
years ago I had to have surgery on my carpal tunnel (at an excellent  
hand surgery centre in Brussels) but it was on my LEFT hand which I do  
not use to operate the mouse or much else. Neither the doctor nor I  
had any idea why it happened on that hand but it did. Surgery solved  
the problem 100%.
