I've been wearing a 945 Forerunner for many years. A number of years ago, I began having pain in my left wrist and thumb. It has interfered with my using my fingers on musical instruments. Recently, feeling frustrated, I put my watch on the other hand. I developed the same types of pain within several weeks. It didn't help when I changed to a lighter watch band. It never the watch might be causing the pain in my small wrist, perhaps shrinking somewhat as I approach 80. Since I won't be wearing it on my wrist anymore, I wonder if there is another way to get the readings. I have a running dynamics pod, but never used it. A heart operation has made it more important to keep track of my health and exercise stats. I found other cheaper watches that are much lighter and provide many stats I'd like. Thanks for any ideas!
