I switched to Dvorak about ten years ago when I was edgy. I've been using it now longer than I used Qwerty. And I don't mind using it - the only problem is my left fingers get a bit sore from all the vowel-pressing during prolonged typing sessions. Am I right in thinking, however, that my hands in general would be more sore in the same situation using Qwerty?
In any case, is it worth switching back at this point? Or if I am going to switch again, is there a different, better keyboard layout to use?

My hands don't get sore at all on qwerty.
I was developing cubital tunnel for a short period until I started putting bean bag strips under my elbows.

Well, when I say prolonged typing sessions I mean 8-12 hours of near-constant, frequent button presses. I guess I should have mentioned that since it's kind of abnormal (I write a lot). Are your typing habits are in the same sort of league? If so then I could put more weight on what you're telling me. Somehow I've managed to avoid serious joint issues thus far.

Dvorak.

then go with that unless you have reason to believe that switching back will eventually yield better gains

You're getting tired. That's all it is.

This. 12 hours of close to non-stop typing is going to get your hands sore no matter what keyboard layout you're using.
