Hello Gramsgg, understand your problem I have essential hand tremor made worse by inhalers, I'm a great granny. Have you tried the disability settings on your computer it allows you to slow the keyboard input down. Worth a look. I have arthritic hands too so double whammy as they say. Don't be put off by mistakes just take more time. There is a free speak program on microsoft, which allows you to talk in your type and also soft ware you can buy, but take care if you are not very conversant with computers, get help would be my advice. Hope this helps and we see you again soon
