Hi Bernice:
My doctor told me that wearing the stiff wrist braces during the night was the best thing I could do unless I wanted surgery. So I wear them and I do okay. I can't write for hours on end without pain. But I can dictate into a small recorder, get my thoughts in order, then type for a while. Then rest. It's working for me, so far.
