Hope someone can help me! I am disabled and spend hours and hours at my computer. I am trying to devise a system where I can sit in my recliner with legs elevated and still use computer. I just bought a new computer and do not want to invest in a laptop. Any suggestions would be so welcome. My feet actually go numb and feel really tight and hurt. I am a senior citizen and this has happened before, but has gone away. This time looks like the swelling is here to stay! I sleep with my feet elevated and they are almost normal in the morning.

Have you tried using a hassock (foot stool) to prop your feet on. You might want to try a ice pack along with the elevated feet.

Maybe someone can hook up your computer to your tv so that you can use that as a monitor and then get a wireless keyboard with a built in mouse.
