pulsating mouse
Question or problem! I have a pulsating mouse, that sends electricity into my hand, causing pain, that after hours of using the mouse, moves up my arm. I can feel the mouse pulsating, has anyone else had this problem? Could this be a electrical problem? I've been to the doctor so I know its not medical. |

| Ok, is this by design? If not then something is wrong with your mouse. Mice should not be delivering an electric shock to your hand. Go buy a new one!

Sure sounds medical to me!
Unless you have a very strange mouse it cannot vibrate, nor can it shock you. I have not seen any that were made of anything but plastic, which is non-conductive.
I would switch the mouse to the other hand (its hard to use the wrong hand) for a while. If you do not have the same problem with the other hand it must be medical.
I was forced to learn to use my left hand for simular symtoms. It was akward for a few days, but it was that or not use the computer. Now I switch back and forth often.
Some doctors may be afraid to give the correct diagnosis due to the cost.

I've have tried using the other hand, and I can feel the pulse when I first touch the mouse. I will try switching the mouse to see if that helps. I've had all the Capal test, it not that. Thanks

Can anyone else feel the pulse? Perhaps it is a vibration coming from somewhere else.
There are other conditions besides carpel (spelling ?) that can cause pain.
Is this mouse a standard mouse, or is it special?

OK, this is a dangerous situation!
You need an electrician ASAP!
The most likely cause is a broken or loose ground wire where the power comes in from the pole.
You are at risk, your computer, all of your electical appliances! Blown light bulbs are caused by the missing ground causing very high voltages.
This is very serious. I would shut of the power to the whole trailer now!
