Hi bhockey95,

I can see how difficult it is for you to type with the keyboard on your MacBook Pro. The first thing I would suggest is to reset the SMC and VRAM on your MacBook Pro. If the issue persists, try connecting an external USB keyboard to isolate the issue to the hardware on your computer. If you have an Apple Retail Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider near you, they can physically inspect your MacBook and make recommendations based on their findings.

Take care,
