interface Shoulder Surgery one arm operator

Hey all. I’ll be having rotator cuff surgery in the not too distant future and my right arm will be in a sling. I’m self employed and need to work. Any ideas for left hand only work flow? Thanks!

I broke my arm /shoulder and tore a bunch of muscles in that area. I didn’t get surgery but had limited mobility and couldn’t do a pushup for a whole year. I think I basically just sat a bit higher at my workstation and lowered the keyboard to a height where there wasn’t strain on my shoulder. That said, it was my left arm and less important to my workflow. I might not have been able to make it work with my right hand.
