I don't have issues yet but I worry that I might face this in the future. I had a problem back in I think it was March or April when I was working in deli. My hand ached for a couple weeks when I was lifting the boxes of chicken and such. Then on a couple days off my right hand swelled and I had to ice it just to make a fist, hurt to even lift the coffee pot. Some of my older coworkers wondered if it was carpal tunnel issues, but I don't know for sure. That's the only time I've had a problem but I've had strange twinges of pain when doing certain things like using tongs in deli. And it aches on occasion no matter what I'm doing.

My hand also falls asleep easily, especially when I'm in bed, trying to sleep or I wake up with it asleep. The right is the worse though the left has minor problems on occasion.

I have a hard time handwriting anything because by paragraph two my hand hurts. I always preferred typing essays to having tests with long essays required because it always bothered my hand. Typing makes me hand ache a smidgen but so far not very much. Right now my hand aches a little. I guess if it is that problem I will just keep typing the best I can. Maybe not always 125k but still. I'll find a way. hehe
