I am desperately trying to find a way of using my computer in comfort
without causing horrendous pain, mainly in my shoulder.  If you saw me now you would laugh as I have lowered the chair and my right arm is resting on a cushion while I type but it feels very awkward - and slow.
Has anyone had similar problems and can give me some tips?

Hi florald - poor you.  Was just going to reply but glow777 beat me to it.  Could be the same link but have a look at this - there might be some tips if you check out the other links suggested. http://www.direct.gov.uk/Employment/Employees/HealthAndSafetyAtWork/HealthAndSafetyAtWorkArticles/fs/en?CONTENT_ID=10026668&chk=9O2Rhm
