Tendonitis

[G GRAVINA]

Brian,

Where does it hurt and how often do you get pain?

I've been managing wrist and hand discomfort from carpel tunnel - and 
hopefully put off surgery (indefinitely) - by alternating tuning 
positions.  I recently learned to tune verticals with the lever in my left 
hand; grands I still do righty.
