It is well recognised that treatment for RSI and overuse injuries are inherently personal and each individual will have a different treatment or combination of treatments that work best for them.

I had RSI symptoms and did not know what they were at the time. I saw many different specialists and had many medical scans and checks but there was no definitive injury or illness. I started to feel hopeless and was at my wits' end. After seeing a few more professionals I was referred to the ACT Pain Centre, where I was finally given a better understanding of my injury and pain, and a diagnosis of RSI. From here I found RSI ACT and I was able to get more resources and help with managing and treating my conditions. I am now working part time at RSI ACT in administrative support, including further research on RSI and informing our members through newsletters.

I developed a severe case of RSI and found that Dragon was able to assist me to continue working. I am keen to speak with other Dragon users. I am now semi-retired and works as a marriage celebrant. As you can imagine there is lots of paperwork to do and I would find it very difficult without the assistance of Dragon. I would like to include my gratitude to Sue Woodward without whose wholehearted support, patience and expertise, I would not have been able to use Dragon effectively.

I have written a novel that explores what led to the RSI epidemic of the 1980s – 1990s, its effect on the sufferers, and the struggle that took place with the workers and the unions to establish the injury as work-related and not hysteria as being contended in the court cases that took place.
