Hi Barq,
I'm no doc, but did most computer jobs from desktop help to network admin. One of the items that doesn't require exactly the same nerves used with operating a standard mouse is the rolling ball mouse. I imagine you've seen them. They are simply a ball about half the size of a pool game ball, and suspended in a simple holder. Rolling the ball around moves the cursor. Usually you have to hit an "enter" spot on the holder, but there are ways around that in the instructions with the ball device.
Don't know the extent or nature of your damage, but most of those in office use are repetitive use flareups that will calm once the nerves used are rested. It that is the cause, then wrist devices of different configurations can be used in the future to lessen the chances of "repetitive" or chronic occurrences.
good luck,
Spank
