Two of my co-workers and one of my buddies from school used the Anker vertical mice. Little too vertical for my tastes (I feel like I have to pinch fore-finger and thumb to click instead of pressing against the desk) but it seems pretty popular.

I had some wrist discomfort when I started CADing more and got myself a slightly less vertical mouse. After searching Amazon for ergonomic mice I got this mouse (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01IASH35I/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1) awhile back. It's a bit of a no-name mouse, so it's no longer in stock. I actually originally got it under the brand Etekcity (died after a couple years of continuous use), so I assume the design just gets picked up by different Chinese manufacturers under a new name.

Try putting your hand at different angles on your desk to see what angle you'll want to look for. Doing this right now it looks like I'd actually prefer something between what I have now and the Anker.
Anyways, I'd recommend browsing Amazon. Best of luck!

Look into trackball mice. I started having symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome and tried about 7 different mice. They ranged from vertical mice to trackball. I did try out the anker vertical, and found out it wasn’t helping with all of my strain issues. I ended up settling on a traditional trackball mouse. It’s admittingly a huge learning curve. It does take a good amount of time to get used to it, and efficient enough where you’re not “thinking” to not move the mouse around (you use trackball mice in the stationary position).

I started with the Logitech M570 and used that with a Wrist Rest from my second semester of grad school until I finished (this spring). I would still have some strain, and then the Logitech MX Ergo came out and I bought it. Instantly hooked. It’s best of both worlds with trackball and vertical. Little tidbit, BestBuy sells an exclusive variant that includes an extra piece that increases the mouse’s angle. I recommend getting that one as I can’t live without it. It’s called the MX Ergo Plus.

Like you, I was having searing pains in my wrist and up my forearm after a long day of using Rhino. Both 2D drafting, and 3D modeling. Switching to an ergonomic mouse, for me a trackball and “vertical-esque” model has saved me!

Good luck, and if you have any questions just let me know!

Unfortunately it seems like there aren't a lot of good options for books out there. This is the best one I've found - https://www.amazon.com/Algorithms-Aided-Design-Parametric-strategies-Grasshopper/dp/8895315308

I haven't tried ThinkParametric but Lynda.com has some good material on it and you might be able to get free access through your local library or something.

In that case, my coworker uses this mouse since he works from home twice per week and takes it with him to work. It's pretty ergonomic and also has a rechargeable battery, so you won't have to worry about having AA or AAA batteries around.
