I'm 25 -- a programmer by day and a gamer by night. I developed really severe tendonitis 2 years ago. Imagine a line of fire from the top of your hands all to the way up your arms and over your shoulder...yeah, that was me. It started with pain on the top of my hands and crept up due to misunderstanding the causal mechanisms. Don't be me.
Feel free to DM me if you have questions. Love to help
Hey there! The malm might work if you take it apart and just use the top. IKEA reinforces the edges of their cheapo Linnmon table tops, and they work perfect for it. I would imagine the Malm would be done the same way, or maybe even better if they use something a little more solid than the honeycombed cardboard inside the Linnmons. (although, the Linnmon ones are pretty good. I weigh about 120 lbs and have stood on my Linnmon several times without any issues).
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B009S750LA/ <- that's the monitor mount I use. One arm has been shortened to fit my setup a bit better though. It works really well and I've been using it for years on various Linnmons without any sagging issues. My monitors are 23" each, not incredibly heavy but not super light either.
I actually have a photo of it on a Linnmon right now, but its on a VIVO motorized frame instead of OLOV legs. (I had to move my desk in a rush to get natural lighting for a Skype interview - please pardon my mess! lol)

If you do get the mount, just make sure you use the clamp, and not the optional grommet. I tried installing it on a corner Linnmon using the grommet... and it just folded in on itself, since it was installed pretty far from the reinforced edges of the desk.
It wasn't a complete loss though. I just painted some wood to match the mount, and used it to reinforce the area. It just gave me a little place to put my spooky forest spirits lol

There are some notebook stands that can elevate your laptop's screen without raising the keyboard too high. The Goldtouch Go Travel Notebook stand is popular for this: https://www.amazon.com/Goldtouch-KOV-GTLS-0055-Travel-Laptop-Aluminum/dp/B003YKSRT4

Wireless keyboards are much more portable. The Kinesis freestyle 2 comes in a bluetooth option: https://www.thehumansolution.com/kinesis-freestyle2-bluetooth-mac.html
Adesso makes a "floppy" travel keyboard. Definitely less bulky, but the shape is similar enough to a traditional keyboard it may not be what you're looking for: https://www.thehumansolution.com/adesso-akb-210-220-230-waterproof-folding-usb-keyboard.html

While equipment is being made better for our bodies all the time, we cannot discount the value of good old fashioned stretches! Just like with any activity, a little stretch at the beginning of the day, and at the close, will go a long way to keep your limbs healthy. the following video is from a gym, but you could definitely do these in an office setting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWtvCGCYbYc

Sorry if any of this is review! I hope it helps.
First off, thank you so much for your detailed answer, I did not know about any of these ergonomic tips and will definitely try to adjust my seat to it.
For "lumbar support", I meant a lumbar support pillow, such as [this:] (https://www.amazon.ca/Premium-Memory-Lumbar-Support-MemorySoft/dp/B011MTPXE0).
Reading your comment about putting a pillow or tower at the peak of my lumbar curve, and having actually tried it out (with my fist) it felt..good, like my low back is being supported and I am not really slouching, like I'm automatically having a good posture by it. Not sure if this makes sense...
And your comment regarding the seat pan and pelvic tilt is exactly how my car seat felt like. The seat pan is tiled with an upward slope...
I think I will be buying the lumbar support pillow as well as adjusting the seat pan angle to make sure it's not sloping. Again, thank you so much for your time and research, I really do appreciate it!
The cutout is to bring you closer in, so your work surface wraps around you. Usually, it means the mouse is within easier reach. I gather you can't adjust your armrests down or back? If not, your options are:
(1) replace the work surface on your desk
(2) find something to fill in the gap (like https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072HW8B7J/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 if it fits, although you could steal the hardware and attach to anything you wanted. I actually have this and am generally happy with it).
(3) remove the chair arms
(3) remove chair arms and add elbow supports that clamp to your desk ( something like https://www.amazon.com/Packs-Rotating-Extension-Elbow-Armrest/dp/B00QMMMFU8/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=elbow+support+desk&qid=1571165216&s=office-products&sr=1-1 although I've never tried them personally)
Good luck!
Nice, I'm glad I was able to get your advice. However I have some <20$ pc mice in mind, could you rate them 1-5?

I would use it for gaming so maybe that becomes a problem for some of these? If you have another suggestion that fits the same budget, feel free to put the link. My category would be <25$, wired optical mouse, preferably for gaming. Thank you very much!
Pretty much, you don't. It's one of my major complaints with Aeron. They come in S, M, L sizes. You can tell the size by counting the number of bumps (1,2,3) on the inside of the ridge at the top of the backrest. You can put a cushion or something similar like an Obusforme (https://www.amazon.com/Ergonomic-Backrest-Wheelchair-Cushion-Comfortable/dp/B01720GFAE) to effectively push the backrest forward.
I use this one for my three monitors: https://www.amazon.com/Planar-Monitor-Stand-Black-997-5253-00/dp/B003LD8XMA?th=1
It's worked great for me and it's quite stable.
Foot stool! I just bought this one and I love it.

I actually used that one for a while and had to stop using it because it was putting a lot of stress on my thumb and causing me new pain. I like ones like the Kensignton Expert but it does take some time to get used to. It did take a while to heal up with that through. And although I can't speak to your particular case of RSI my biggest helpers in relieving my pain was through chiropractic care and trigger-point massage.
Does a trackball mouse help significantly? like this
Arkstore Lumbar Support Cushion
MEDesign Backfriend Back Support
It's hard to tell from the pictures, but I think the problem is that the M317 is meant for a claw grip. If that's the case, then most mice are meant for a palm grip and will fit your needs. However, make sure to check the weight and dimensions. Here's an example that is relatively similar to the M317 (wireless, ambidextrous, Logitech), but not necessarily the right choice for you.
If you're in the UK you could try this:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00AV70AEI/ref=aw_wl_ov_dp_1_1?colid=2XLLQAH11LZVL&amp;coliid=I2GOGZBYWRADR
It's dual monitor but you can remove one arm.
