ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I have experienced extreme toxicity from exposure to my cellphone with symptoms including nausea, headaches, dizziness and brain fog. I have also developed extreme difficulty with being able to sleep since I started using the cellphone so am now looking to switch to a flip phone or other alternative type that emits lower levels of EMFs. It is clearly very toxic.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
My entire life shifted six years ago. Before my demise, I was a successful actress, wrote four books, two screenplays, started a children's theater company, became a spiritual marketer supporting the holistic, therapeutic community, and traveled the world. And then, my world stopped. In succession, I was exposed to mold, botulism, Roundup, and Radiation Poisoning. The radiation was the worst, triggering severe Tinnitus. You see, you can't smell, feel, or see radiation, but you feel it. It still feels like the wires in my brain are shifting. My memory is disappearing; I can no longer sleep through the night. I had to move seven times to stay away from towers, antennas, and transformers. It became worse when the "powers that be" started ramping up the radiation. My teeth started hurting every time I opened the computer. I had to get all my crowns out and get new ones that were compatible with my microbiome. I had to sell my car, buy an old Jeep, remove anything that was electric, and choose a car with fewer EMFs (electromagnetic fields). My gut is worse than ever. I developed SIBO, and no longer have a stomach that can digest anything. I weigh 95 pounds instead of 120. Clearly, it is getting harder and harder to find a place to live where I can use an Ethernet cable or remove the Digital Meter attached to one's home. Analog meters are safer, as they don't bring radiation into the home. Perhaps, one day people will come together and create a safe place to live WITHOUT wires, Transformers, and Towers (that are now being covered with green leaves).

I was living in Fayetteville AR. when cell phone towers first began going up, and there was one near my home. I am very sensitive to EMFs, and when I drove past the tower, I could feel a very toxic energy being emanated from it. I began to have panic attacks because I was becoming forgetful, and I feared I might be coming down with early onset Alzheimer's, but I also suspected it might have been due to the cell phone technology. I decided to move to a much more rural area and as soon as I did, I was fine. Sadly, there is no longer many ways to escape the dangers of cell phone tech. Since then, I have become a member of an international forum online which discusses at length the many toxins , both biological and technological, that are infesting the planet now. There has been no lack for a very long time of very credible evidence about how toxic cell phone tech is not only to humans, but to many lifeforms on Earth, including the bees which human life depends on to continue. I believe we are in the End Times, which so many prophets have warned us against, and that we all need to make sure we are ready to meet our Maker. Those who defend these dangerous technologies will have much to answer for when they do.

I experienced serious vertigo from a 5G cellphone. I experienced insonmia from sleeping near a wifi router. I experienced anziety from sleeping near a wifi router. I have now mitigated the wifi radiation emitting devices with faraday cages. and my symptoms have gone away. Im very sensitive to wifi radiation.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I am writing regarding the FCC’s response to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals’ remand concerning its decades-old radiofrequency (RF) radiation exposure guidelines. The Court directed the FCC to provide a reasoned explanation for its determination that its guidelines adequately protect humans against harmful effects of RF radiation unrelated to cancer. Specifically, the court required the FCC to address the impacts of RF radiation on children, the health implications of long-term exposure, the ubiquity of wireless devices and technological developments, impacts on the environment, and the adequacy of the FCC’s testing procedures for cell phones and other portable devices. The FCC should fully consider evidence and real-world experiences concerning the health and environmental impacts of wireless radiation, including non-cancer health effects, impacts on children, long-term and cumulative exposure, cancer, and impacts on wildlife and the environment. The FCC is not a health agency and does not have expertise in medicine, biology or public health. Yet, the agency continues to assert authority over RF exposure standards and is preparing to reach conclusions about whether its existing guidelines adequately protect the public. I urge the FCC to recognize the critical role of federal health agencies, including the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and to rely on appropriate health and biological expertise when addressing the issues identified by the court. This issue matters to me personally because: My autistic son continued to have seizures and medications did not stop his seizure. The wireless router about 6 meters away from him got damaged and it was replaced with another one further away from him. Within 3 months his seizures stopped! He did not have seizures for 2 years and he got another seizure after he used a phone for several hours for an activity. I urge the FCC to give meaningful consideration to the experiences and evidence before it and to fully address each of the issues identified by the court. Thank You

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
My family and I noticed our headaches were getting more frequent over the years. We all bought cell phones around 2010. In 2015 - 2020, the increase of headaches, and general fatigue, had increased by more than 40%. During this time, we moved from New Hampshire to Arizona. The headaches, lowered immune responses (getting sick more often), general fatigue, not sleeping well, all increased significantly from 2020 to 2025. Talking to neighbors around us, we discussed similar issues and that it seemed to be getting worse. We became aware of the number of cell towers were within a 3 mile radius of our home. We stopped holding the phones to our heads during conversations, wearing faraday hats, shutting the wifi off at night, using faraday blankets at night and discontinued as much wireless technologies as possible, including cutting down by almost 50%, our iPhone scrolling and starting reading more books and spending time out in nature. The headaches and general fatigue continued but significantly less and to a much lesser degree of intensity. From all the studies, the warnings and what the government fails to inform the public of the real dangers of wireless technologies, we are convinced that this technology is destroying human health. The public deserves to know, so they can make informed decisions about the wireless devices they consider using in their everyday lives.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
This issue matters to me personally because I have experienced significant and persistent health problems that I associate with electromagnetic radiation exposure beginning in 2018. In approximately 2018, after water and gas smart meters were installed near my home, I began experiencing a number of symptoms that were unusual for me and that developed over a relatively short period of time. These included persistent tingling and numbness in my hands and feet, severe sleep disturbance and insomnia, dizziness and balance problems, palpitations, migraines, tinnitus, nausea, weakness, body aches, burning eyes, temperature dysregulation, difficulty typing and thinking, and other neurological symptoms. I also experienced episodes of vomiting, which was unusual for me. These problems became severe enough that I was unable to continue working. I have experienced chronic fatigue and neuropathy/polyneuropathy, and my medical record includes documentation concerning effects from electromagnetic fields/radiation. I have continued to seek medical care and evaluation for my symptoms. One of the most significant observations in my experience has been what happens when I am away from my home environment. On occasions when I have stayed away from my home, including a period in 2024 at my sister's home where there were no smart meters, I experienced noticeable improvement in my symptoms. I have also experienced improvement during shorter periods away from my home. I cannot determine from these observations alone what caused my symptoms, but the repeated difference between my home environment and locations away from it is one reason I believe my experience warrants serious investigation. My exposure concerns have continued as additional electric meters have been installed near my residence. Multiple electric meters are now located under or near my bedroom windows. I have become so concerned about my bedroom environment that I have been unable to sleep there for an extended period and now sleep on my sofa. It is difficult to describe what it feels like to no longer feel comfortable in your own home. I have lost my ability to work and the financial independence that came with it. I live on a fixed income. Ordinary things that most people take for granted—sleeping in my own bedroom, concentrating, typing, using my hands normally, feeling steady on my feet, and simply feeling well enough to function through the day—have become difficult. I have also experienced increasing numbness in my hands and feet and dizziness. At times I have difficulty feeling objects in my hands, which has affected ordinary activities and has caused me concern about driving and my safety. I have photographs, videos, medical records, and other documentation relating to my experience and the electromagnetic environment around my home. I am willing to make supporting documentation available if requested. I am not asking federal agencies to treat my individual experience as scientific proof of causation. I am asking that experiences such as mine be taken seriously and considered as part of the broader investigation into possible non-cancer health effects, long-term and cumulative exposure, individual susceptibility, and real-world exposure conditions. I never expected that I would have to choose between my health and my own home. I never expected that I would lose my ability to work or that ordinary daily activities would become difficult. I am sharing my experience because I do not want other people—particularly children, older adults, people with existing health conditions, or people who may be especially sensitive to environmental exposures—to find themselves in the same position without their experiences being heard or investigated. I respectfully urge the FCC and the Department of Health and Human Services to listen to people who are reporting these experiences and to ensure that appropriate medical, biological, and public-health expertise is included when evaluating the safety of current exposure guidelines.

They installed a 5G tower in front of my next-door neighbor's house on June 28, 2021, about 100 feet from where I sleep. No one asked our permission, it was just installed without our consent or even notification. I have had severe sleep disruption ever since, having trouble falling and staying asleep, and I have had difficulty concentrating since the sleep disruption. I have no trouble sleeping when we go camping.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I have been bothered by EMF severely since 5G. I am currently 25 years old. My family has had to move for my and my mother's health due to proximity to 5G. I cannot go to stores, be in areas where a 5G tower is near, go to restaurants, in public or anywhere there are 5G phones in use. It has drastically changed my life and I basically have no life outside of my home. Even now, there is a tower with panels directly facing my home and my mom and I have been sick since it was there. We didn't even know it was there, because we can't see it due to trees, but we could feel something was making us sick. A friend who knows this kind of thing makes me sick asked if I had seen the tower on Main St. N. I hadn't. She said her employer and partner live right next to it and they are sick from it. I went looking for it and discovered that even though it is over a mile away, the panels face my home directly. I asked her if she could ask her employer when this tower went up and it was the exact month, 10 months previously, that my mom and I became so sick at home that we can hardly tolerate it and have to move again. Considering that we always own our homes, this is a big deal. I'm tired of having no life, no ability to work and no solace at home. Home should be your sanctuary, but it is far from that. Home is where we are miserable and feel like we are dying. Our thyroids continue to worsen, we are tired, have headaches, heart palpitations, burning skin, brain fog, diarrhea, nausea, etc. It is awful and debilitating. There is enough scientific evidence out there that you KNOW this is bad and wrong. Stop this destroying of so many lives!!
