Guest guest Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 Hi ,  I like the Uniball Rollerball Grip pen. It comes in different colors and different tip sizes.  Examples: http://www.officedepot.com/a/products/216871/uni-ball-Grip-Rollerball-Pens-07/ http://www.officedepot.com/a/products/254749/uni-ball-Vision-Elite-Liquid-Ink/  If you have a pen you like to write with already, but just need added stability or support, you may want to try a pen gripper or writing aid with your existing pen.  Examples: http://www.solutions-for-seniors.info/products/dailyLiving/writing.html http://www.senioremporium.com/grippers.aspx   From: melissa <melissab56@...> Subject: Need a pen recommendation Date: Sunday, October 17, 2010, 7:03 AM  Hi!

Guest guest Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 I use a Paper Mate Profile - World's Smoothest Pen. It is 1.4mm bold, extra smooth with ink gel. It works for me and my fingers are so sensitive to pain. This is the easiest on my fingers today. From: melissa Sent: Sunday, October 17, 2010 10:03 AM Subject: Need a pen recommendation Hi!

Guest guest Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 I was using a table pc with a cross stylus, but they don't offer that anymore. The motion stylus is good though. There was no drag, it made writing much easier. Other than that I use the clear pentel stick pens with the foam grip, the fatter the better. I also use those pencil grip triangles on regular stick pens. I don't write very much now that I'm done with school.

Guest guest Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Hi , I look for a nice thick bodied pen that doesn't taper too much toward the tip and is smooth writing. I like the PhD pens and mechanical pencils from Papermate and the Pilot Dr. Grip pens/pencils. They are both somewhat expensive ($10 or so) but they are refillable. I know the Dr. Grips come in both ballpoint and rollerball. Anything thinner is too thin for me. My work bought some for me, and I have others at home and in my purse that I bought myself. They also got me a packet of gel-like Grips from Papermate which slide on to the thinner pens and pencils and make it a lot easier to use them. I still can't write for a long time, but these items help. > > Hi! > > Any recommendations on a specific brand of pen that may be useful for someone who writes a lot? > > > > > > > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 My problem with pens is exerting enough pressure to write clearly. I love the newish Sharpie pens. They have a fine felt tip and write very smoothly with no bleed-through, and they seem to last a very long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 I like the Sharpies as well. The one I like most is the Sharpie Calligraphic pen , 2.5mm, medium pont. I used to do calligraphy before my hands began to become numb. Although my writing is pretty shakey now that pen helps smooth my lettering. wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 I to like huge pens. One was given to me as a gift and I would like to get more. Problem is that I have shopping and cannot locate I have gone to WalMart, Office Max, and Staples. Any clues or website suggestions?

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2010 Report Share Posted October 20, 2010 Because of CMT me and Amazon, Fedex, UPS, and DHL have become best friends. I'd be lost with a Google search. The wife cringes when the doorbell rings. Wheels > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 20, 2010 Report Share Posted October 20, 2010 Rashid and others: All the Staples in my area carry the Pilot " Dr. Grip " gel pen and pencil; they are sold separately. I admit, they might be difficult to locate because they are just one of dozens of pens/pencils hanging on the rack. I'm sure that the other office supply stores carry them as well. However, I prefer that you buy at Staples because I own some stock in Staples . Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 20, 2010 Report Share Posted October 20, 2010 Hiya! I think I know what kind of pen you're requesting. They are promo pens put out by just about every drug salesman out there. They are usually left with the employees at a doctor's office. My sister works as a transplant coordinator for a pediatric practive and brings me those pens every so often. They are very large in girth and just a tad longer than a regular pen but use the same replacable refill cartrigdes in any color you desire. Check with one or more of your doctor's offices and ask the staff that deals with these salesman. And, don't give up on you doc's office. Try others in the Yellow Pages. Ya never know. I know it's been a very long time since I've posted - nearly three years to be close to exact. I've been giving my older brother terminal cancer care at home (being one of the first paramedics in the U.S. out of Portland, Oregon in the late sixties so the his docs picked me to take care of him and I'm thankful they did - he passed pain fear and peacefully recently at home which was his wish. I just glad I was there to hold his hand when he passed) I'll be giving everyone snippets of updates about my CMT/HNPP status soon. I think you'll find it quite interesting.
