Lesche 28" Ground Shark/Tendonitis

I've got tendonitis across the back of my digging arm...from the base of the back of the wrist to the elbow. Have you ever had that? It's pain across the top of the arm. It makes digging tough! So I ordered a 28" Lesche Ground Shark. Anybody else have one? I think it will save wear-and-tear on my digging arm by allowing me to use my legs to do the work. I may also get the 40" Lesche Ground Shark. They are expensive but the price is worth it to me to give my arm a rest so it can heal. Anyone else ever dealt with this injury? Did you find you had to get another digging tool also?

I've got it but it originally started with how I sit at my keyboard and also operate the mouse. My digging also irritates it further. It's difficult to shake someone's hand w/o my feeling pain in the forearm. Proper exercise and rest should take care of it. (I hope).
What I have is similar to this http://www.ergomatters.co.uk/blog/rsi/forearm-extensor-muscle-overuse-and-rsi/

I have the 36" ground shark, and I never liked how narrow the very curved business end was. I like digging a little bigger hole as not to scratch the coin. A similar constructed flat shovel with sharpened business end is what I use now. It makes quick work of popping a 7" hole with little effort.
