yeah, particularly my right wrist. Now I can no longer use mouse as it hurts a lot if I do so.

Switched to track ball and used by left hand.

it saddens my that my PC gaming life suddenly came to an end... I wonder if those vertical mouse would do the trick or not. eg: Evoluent vertical mouse / Posturite Penguin

anyway, typing on normal mech kb is till OK for me

I had RSI too. Switch to Kinesis Advantage and trackball mouse save my pc/gaming life.
I used Ergodox and Kensington Slimblade trackball (sometime Logitech M570). This 2 are best combo for me now.
What trackball you using? You should seriously consider Ergodox. Choose a light switch like Red or Clear (Swap the spring to lighter one)

I got a Evoluent vertical mouse (Big, Right hand) sitting in the drawer. Not using it because I am totally fine with Trackball now. Also, the OSX driver somehow conflict with 1 of my app. I might need to try it since it got newer/updated version (15 Aug 2013)

I'm currently using logitech trackman marble. Well, I think this is the only trackball I could find in Malaysia other than M570.

I'm looking forward to import a Slimblade, but still I miss gaming with a mouse..

Ic. I got a Logitech Trackman Marble too. Also idling in drawer.. haha.
It seem like the base is not that secure. Sliding when use. Also lag of scrolling features like Slimblade or M570. M570 is actually much easy to adapt than Slimblade. But somehow, I start to like Slimblade more these day. More accurate than M570.

Lube or not and putting o-ring or not. There is still a tactile feel on Brown.
Lube on the stem (Not the bump) will make the movement more smooth.
O-ring is to minimize the bottom up impact/sound.
I using Red on my Ergodox now on right hand and Brown on Left hand. Both lube. Definitely can feel the tactile bump on Brown.

Want More tactile bump? Goes for Clear. Hate the heavy spring? Mod it to Ergoclear (swap to brown/red/blue spring or Korean one)

Too bad there is not more tactile bump with light spring (Ergoclear) by default

Ya. kimchi 27" LCD best.
I got 2 X 27" now. Crossroad (kimchi brand) and Dell Ultrasharp U2713HM. The kimchi is my main LCD now.
Do have some problem with the backlight before. But sorted out by seller send me the driver board. I change myself without send back the whole LCD.

You should really gest Ergodox. Best keyboard compare to my Kinesis Advantage, Matron 3D AND HHKB type-2
