I also am right-handed, but use the mouse with my left hand for the same reason. I taught myself to "ten-key" using the number pad, and after a short time, it is second nature. There is even a second Enter key at the number pad. I'm so used to doing it this way, that it is now difficult to use the mouse with the right hand. I recommend it.

You can also move the mouse to your right hand. I'm right handed, but on two of my work computers, I use a left mouse because I use a lot of keypad entry. With a right mouse, I'd have to constantly move my right hand between the keypad and the mouse. With the left mouse, I can move the mouse and enter numbers without extra hand movement. Try it for a few days to get used to it. After a while, you don't notice a difference.
