Naemanson	Tech: Musical instrument not needing dexterity (51* d)	Tech: Musical instrument not needing dexterity	19 Sep 20
Three years ago I had a stroke that affected my right side. A few years ago I had a carpal tunnel release on my left arm. I'd waited too long on the carpal tunnel release and the nerve was damaged beyond hope. I have two working fingers, index and middle, as well as my thumb on my left hand. My right hand is clumsy and slow. Typing is a pain and I spend as much time correcting typos and typing. Result: I cannot play my guitars, or my pennywhistle, and my efforts to learn the violin are done. But I want to play music. I'm thinking of getting a mountain dulcimer. With what manual dexterity I have left do you think I can make that work? Can you suggest another instrument?
