I don't suffer as you do, but do get tendonitis/sp? - which is very similar, and I too use the wrist splint/s when required. So annoying when I try to pick something up and it drops right out of my hand when times are bad! Good though that someone else has to vacuum at times.
Think these symptoms are 'unfortunate' legacies from our chosen career.
