Sounds like carpal tunnel syndrome at beginning stages, from experience.  Please take it seriously because the inflammation can make the pain spread up to the shoulder and make you miserable for months.

Get a medical wrist brace and wear it as much as you can.  I don't want to be Jeromeless, even if you growl at me.  (:

P.S.  melo, Jerome needs you!

yeah, i need me too...

take care j, try reversing the stress habit-positions, pulling on the fingers to open the palms and stretch the knucklejoints so to give a chance for the synovial fluid to enter and bathe the whole joint.

get a new mouse too, i like the logitec wireless for ergonomics, but any variety in size and shape would help.

repetitive stress is a bastard, so easy to fall into, and so sneakily incremental.

get deep massage in the forearm and palms, avoiding the wrist itself until the condition is repaired.
