Where you absolutely refuse to go the cheap way.

For me its deodorant. Everything else I've found but my chosen brand fails me.

Just out of curiosity, do you have any recommendations for specific products?

I recently bit the bullet and bought a Kinesis Advantage360. Definitely interesting to get use to and eye wateringly expensive, but my wrist pain went away within days.

The Kinesis Advantage is an absolute godsend for tendonitis!

I can tell you what works for me.

I have an Uncaged Ergonomics Adjustable Under Desk Keyboard Drawer and Mouse Tray (KT2-b v2). It has a wider range of adjustment and is easy to change. I spent a week tweaking the position and it's been perfect ever since.

My dual monitors are each attached to a Jestik Advanced Flex 1.0 Single Monitor Arm. I can position them anywhere I want at any angle and they will stay there.

My keyboard is a Kinesis Freestyle Edge RGB with Cherry MX mechanical switches. I also use their Lift Kit. The keyboard is split in half and the lift kit raises it in the center at a 30-degree angle. There is a wrist rest built into the front the of the keyboard. All of that minimizes how much my arms have to rotate without making me learn a completely different mode of typing.

I switched from a mouse to a trackball decades ago when I started to have sore wrists. My long-time driver is the Logitech MX Ergo Trackball. I put it on a stand that adds 20-degrees of tilt to get the best angle for me.

I also have a small trackpad on a small pedestal between the two halves of my keyboard. It allows me to do simple cursor movements without taking my hands of the keys.

On the rare occasions when I want a mouse I use an Anker Wireless Vertical Mouse.

It may be overkill, but I use it for eight hours a day and do not feel any discomfort.
