road cycling and repetitive stess injury?

about a year or so into taking up road cycling, just as I was really gaining steam, I developed hand/wrist tendonitis from computing at work. It has made cycling difficult at best. At the moment I am pretty much relegated to only using aerobars on the trainer; riding outside tends to flare up my hands.

Anyone else dealt with something similar? Any advice on bike setup or other measures to help? It would seem that the less weight I can support on my hands, the better - I've got my saddle all the way back, and the bars as high as possible using a steer tube extender. Also working on lower back/ ab strength.

Thanks.
