If so, consider using speech recognition programs like DRAGON NATURALLYSPEAKING 
(DRAGON DICTATE FOR MAC OS) to operate your computer hands-free. Not only will it reduce the need for using your hands and fingers repeatedly, but it will also increase your productivity in tasks like email, word processing and web browsing. This is because according to the Stanford Research Study, voice typing can be up to 3 times faster than typing with fingers.

Dragon NaturallySpeaking has been recommended

Dragon NaturallySpeaking has got separate commands for controlling the mouse. You can watch my YouTube demo below:


With the current versions of Dragon NaturallySpeaking, you do not need to train the software for hours so that it can adapt to your accent and style of speaking. For most of the tasks, the software works right out of the box. After installation, you can get started in as little as 15 minutes.



My Story

I developed severe repetitive stress injury symptoms after two decades of working in the high-tech industry. The health condition brought other problems such as Fibromyalgia to the surface making it impossible for me to operate the computer anymore. That is until I found that Dragon NaturallySpeaking

During the course of my learning, I found that many users do not realise that they not only they can use Dragon NaturallySpeaking for dictation, email or word processing but also for web browsing, working with spreadsheets and improving productivity by automating their workflow. Some of the less tech-savvy users were not aware that they can use cheap noise cancelling external soundcard is work in a noisy environment.

I, therefore, created FREE VIDEO TUTORIALS to share my knowledge to help users utilise Dragon Naturally Speaking to its full potential. And, in the process, help them gain control of their pain due to repetitive stress injuries.

Use Cavilon to avoid skin damage if you use kinesiology tape regularly

I have found kinesiology tapes to be very useful in managing chronic pain due to fibromyalgia. It has been very useful to me in also managing the pain due to shoulder tendinitis. In fact, kinesiology taping was the only way that I could brush with my right arm when affected with shoulder tendinitis. However, applying tapes repeatedly over the course of several weeks starts damaging the skin and it becomes difficult to remove the tapes also. This is especially true for regions where the skin is a relatively softer like the anterior neck and  area near to armpits. Cavilon has been very helpful to me by making it easier to remove the kinesiology tape thereby reducing the chance of the skin getting damaged. Using Cavilon is straightforward. Just before applying the kinesiology tape, you just spray it over the area on which the tape is to be applied. It is relatively costly but if you have to use the kinesiology tape over a long period, there does not seem to be any other

On December 22, 2017 the tax reform bill , or 'a giant tax cut ' as President Trump calls it, has finally been passed by both houses and has been signed into a law. It is not immediately obvious how the tax plan impacts patients with chronic illnesses. Views in the media are often tainted by the political prism through which the commentators tend to look at this issue. Plus there is limited discussion of the specific provisions that can affect patients with chronic illnesses.

However, I seem to have had more than my fair share of tax problems and as a result, I have become overfamiliar with the IRS website and publications.

Reduce finger, wrist and forearm pain due to computer mouse usage with Gentle Mouse

If you are reading this on a computer screen, chances are that you would have clicked your mouse at least a couple of times to navigate through this content. And in most cases, the finger used to click would be your index finger. Now imagine doing this repetitive movement every few minutes, day after day, year after year and you can easily infer that your fingers are at an increased risk of repetitive stress injury (or RSI) due to mouse overuse. The common name given to this painful condition is  Mouse Finger .  The 'Finger' in Mouse Finger usually leads a person to believe that the pain is restricted to the fingers alone.  However, from what I have surmised after reviewing anecdotal evidence and medical literature, it commonly presents as a cluster of symptoms in the finger, wrist and the forearm. Perhaps that explains why there are no easily available research studies pertaining to Mouse Finger alone. Most of the research studies consider these symptoms as a part of
