Hi All:  I'm wondering if anyone else using a screen reader like Jaws has
developed an overuse injury like Carpal tunnel or tennis elbow. I have the
latter bad in my right elbow, and I think the primary cause is overuse of my
right hand on the numpad to navigate the screen using Jaws. I've got J-say
up and running, and if I'm feeling patient, I can replace some typing and
navigation using it. But I think I do a lot of arrow up and arrow down to
skim text and find things I'm looking for. Perhaps I don't take enough
advantage of Jaws quick keys like next sentence, next paragraph, etc. I
haven't used skim reading mode at all.  I'm curious if anyone has figured
out ways to minimize keystrokes that we usually use for screen reading and
navigating to avoid overuse. Thanks.
