I'm sorry to hear it's that bad and wish you the very best for successful surgery and a speedy recovery. I got RSI in my right hand and was told there was nothing I could do but stop using it for the mouse, so now I use my left, but sometimes I have to use one in each hand and then it's pretty bad. Perhaps I should ask about surgery, although it would be a last resort.
