If you choose to proceed with this trial, be on the look out for deteriorating function.

Then again, it is entirely possible that you are genetically left (have any lefties in your family?) lean in that direction already (do a lot of things ambidexteriously?) and have left eye, ear, and foot preference. In that case you are doing yourself a wonderful favor by switching your hand!

Are there studies done on this? I don't see how training motor functions of non-preferred hands could negatively influence someone, physically or mentally. It would make a fascinating study, though.
