Writing tools and keyboards

HMB97

Hi there, I have been living with arthritis in my hands for 5 years now. I was quite well controlled until a few months ago. I have ongoing review in terms of meds and treatment.

But I am wondering which pens and keyboards people find easiest to use with rheumatoid arthritis? Struggling to find the best ones to help me work at my best during flares.

thank you!

I have OA in my hands and I am currently using the Logi Wave wireless keyboard and Logi wireless vertical mouse. Both really helped me. If you get in contact with Access to Work, they can advise you too.

Hello @HMB97 and welcome to the Online Community. We are a friendly and supportive group and I hope that will be your experience as well.

@PaulaJ above has provided a couple of good suggestions, but also do an internet search for ergonomic mice and keyboards - there are a lot out there, your employer may be able to provide one if needed.

Best wishes

Peter
