I agree that you should get a keywell keyboard. I haven't read any specific reviews (I'm down the make-your-own rabbit hole instead), but I've seen some sentiment that the Glove80 is better than Kinesis' offerings, and I believe it's more programmable.
And about that last, if you "have to learn how to type again from scratch," you should use a key layout that will work best for you. This may not be a layout that already exists! Colemak and all its variants, for example, put A and R under your left ring and pinky finger. You might want K and J there instead. Or if it's easy to press the key your left ring and pinky are on, but hard to move them to a different key, you might be OK with A and R. Though Dvorak, for example, has left-handed and right-handed variants, I don't think there are any predefined layouts for people who want to type more letters with their right hand than their left -- or to be more likely to need to move fingers on their right hand more often than their left.
Carpalx is a body of work that lets you define the typing effort for each key, and finds an optimum key layout for you. I haven't used it myself - Colemak DH is a sufficiently high local maximum of goodness for me and I haven't gone down that hill to find a higher maximum yet. But the moment you're in may afford you a unique opportunity.

If you do end up making one, or having one made, you might be interested in something like the Concertina.
