ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I have EMR Syndrome (electromagnetic/radio microwave syndrome), meaning I get sick from exposure to those fields including frequent and severe migraines, digestive issues, restless sleep, fatigue, bruising, eye floaters and ringing in my ears. With the high EMR my body succumbs easily to metals, parasites and tick borne illnesses. I work with several medical professionals so these conditions are well documented. Recent annual testing show that physically I am healthy and have no chronic illnesses that require regular pharmaceutical medicines.

Cumulative EMF and RF Fields With the increasing objects emitting more and more EMR fields in our environment, these days my tolerance level has become lower and lower. The accumulation of all the fields of all the devices in our environment far exceeds any reasonable standard established for the individual devices, when each one is declared “safe”. The mitigation measures I’ve taken, at great personal expense, is so I can live comfortably in my home. However outside my home, the accumulation of dirty electricity and radio-microwave fields together, if I have meetings or am in a room with Wifi, LED lights/dirty electricity and a group of people who all have their phone turned on, the fields are intolerable to me triggering a migraine even wearing shielding clothing.

The commenter reports severe symptoms after a tower was built near their apartment, describes deaths and …

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Public Comment Submission To: Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Subject: Public Comment Regarding Environmental Health Impacts and Electromagnetic Field (EMF/RF) Radiation Exposure 1. Background and Context • Proximity to Infrastructure: This testimony concerns the installation of an AT&T Cingular Wireless cell tower erected approximately 200 feet from my former apartment complex. • Timeline: The health decline detailed below occurred within a 2-year window following the tower's construction. • Community Impact: The apartment building is a small, 81-unit complex. During this period, an unusually high mortality rate was observed, including the deaths of my downstairs neighbor and 11 other residents, alongside severe illnesses in domestic pets, resulting in the death of my cat. • Current Housing Status: Due to reporting these hazards and speaking out, I faced retaliation and am currently displaced, living out of my car because the apartment became entirely uninhabitable for me. 2. Individual Symptomatology & Clinical Manifestations Upon the activation of the cell tower, I experienced an immediate and severe onset of multi-system physiological symptoms when present in my apartment: Category Specific Symptoms Experienced Neurological, Sleep & Visual Severe insomnia despite profound exhaustion ("tired but wired" state); acute physical weakness and shakiness; regular episodes of severe wooziness and near-fainting spells; visual trailing effects (palinopsia/perceived motion trails). Sensory Persistent metallic taste on the tip of the tongue; intense, loud tinnitus (ringing in the ears) particularly acute at night; a distinct, olfactory-like buzzing sensation in the nose when near consumer electronics like a smart TV. Dermatological & Gastrointestinal Hyper-sensitive, irritated skin; severe nausea triggered immediately upon proximity to personal laptops. Metabolic / Homeostatic An intense, excessive thirst when near high-exposure areas that could not be quenched by any amount of water. 3. Environmental Readings • RF/EMF Monitoring: Utilizing a personal EMF reader, I detected exceptionally high radiofrequency (RF) readings radiating from or interacting directly with my body while inside the living space. 4. Conclusion and Call to Action The direct correlation between the installation of this cellular infrastructure, my acute physical decline, and the alarming cluster of illnesses and deaths within a small 81-unit residential community warrants immediate federal investigation. I urge the HHS to review the biological impacts of low-latency, high-frequency radiation proximities on residential zones and establish stricter safety boundaries to protect human life and public health.

Describes reports from legal and advocacy intake about wireless exposure, lighting, fiber-installation in…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Subject: Professional Comments on EMF/RF Exposure Frameworks and Public Health Observations From a professional standpoint within the Michigan legal and advocacy sector, this comment is submitted anonymously to safeguard organizational identities while contributing vital observations gathered from public intake. Over a period of several years, a number of individuals have sought professional consultation regarding physical grievances, environmental instability, and institutional barriers stemming from exposure to various electromagnetic fields (EMF) and radiofrequency (RF) frequencies. Many complaints show a deeper concern regarding pulsating frequencies in particular – Wi-Fi, 5G, and Bluetooth are common issues. Primary concerns brought forward during these consultations involve radio frequencies emitted by consumer wearables and cellular devices, with 5G infrastructure frequently cited as an accelerating factor. Furthermore, individuals have reported sensitivities to workplace LED lighting systems introduced into healthcare and commercial facilities, as well as providing an outpouring of criticism regarding outdoor LED lighting creating vision difficulty and a blinding effect. A distinct subset of inquiries involves the recent rapid deployment of fiber-optic installations. Documentation presented during these intakes indicates that standard installations frequently fail to prioritize the mitigation of electromagnetic interference (EMI). Specific technical areas of concern include improper grounding techniques and the utilization of copper tracer wires. There is significant concern that the integration of 5G and small-cell infrastructure onto existing tracer wires inadvertently elevates ambient radiation within residential zones. Additionally, the strategic placement of converter stations near high-density residential areas introduces low-frequency magnetic fields that communities are ill-equipped to shield against. Consequently, individuals are increasingly requesting regulatory requirements for enhanced insulation, structural shielding, and strict hardwired enforcement policies that explicitly prohibit the retrofitting or attachment of wireless small-cell antennas or radio units to fiber backhaul lines. Beyond structural infrastructure, a growing portion of professional inquiries involves individuals seeking assistance in navigating their relationships with medical care teams. The records indicate a troubling pattern of institutional friction and discrimination when patients request simple environmental accommodations, such as asking staff to leave wireless devices outside the examination room. Reports include accounts of individuals being ridiculed or dismissed by medical personnel. To mitigate these hostile environments, some individuals now incur the personal expense of hiring third-party witnesses to accompany them to appointments to ensure respectful treatment, while others rely on portable audio recorders to preserve the details of their consultations. Given the accelerated pace of modern clinical environments, where overlapping appointments frequently result in hurried communication, the ability to record a medical visit serves as an essential tool for patient comprehension and data retention. Regulatory frameworks should explicitly protect a patient’s right to record their own paid consultations. Accumulated data over years of professional intake underscores the necessity for updated regulatory oversight. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) guidelines must be modernized, as the foundational exposure limits rely on data compiled long before the ubiquity of modern wireless infrastructure. The current deployment pace outpaces long-term biological safety tracking, impacting both human populations and local wildlife ecosystems. Observing these consistent reporting patterns has prompted immediate changes in my own personal technology habits, resulting in measurable improvements in cognitive efficiency and energy levels. Stricter federal guidelines, independent biological studies, and the establishment of verified low-EMF zones are entirely appropriate, necessary, and vital to preserving public quality of life.

Reports sleep and stress symptoms after a neighboring tower installation, perceived partial benefit from …

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
1. & 2. I am responding as: an individual 3a. Type of wireless or RF/EMF sources involved (e.g., mobile phones, Wi-Fi, smart meters…)Since 2008 a lot of exposure to WiFi and mobile phones (work). Last year: New cell phone tower on neighbor building 3b. Nature, duration, frequency, and approximate timing (e.g., years):New >3Ghz cell phone tower (European non-nanometer 5G), since over one year. 3c. Adverse health effect(s) experienced:Bad sleep quality, high stress level, constantly feeling exhausted, chronic issues worsened 3d. Time from first exposure to first appearance of adverse health effects; and did a change in exposure coincide with the onset of adverse effects:It was noticeable in the days after the new cell phone sender/receiver was installed 3e. Was medical evaluation or treatment sought? (Optionally:) Was there a diagnosis?Yes, no clear diagnosis, symptoms were attributed to high stress level (flare up) 3f. Were steps taken to reduce or eliminate exposure, and were there subsequent changes in the effects?I bought an expensive device to "neutralize" the negative effects of the EMF and it did help to a degree where I could get somewhat decent sleep again. I am now in the process of moving out of this apartment. 3g. Any supporting documentation? This includes Scientific Reports, exposure measurements, or other relevant information:I have an "e-Spion" meter, an analog HF meter. It was basically impossible to measure anything as the EMF level was way beyond the maximum range of the meter. That was the case before already, so I could not tell a difference from before/after as the device is too sensitive for the intensity in this apartment. Additional Details you would like to share about your experiences of adverse health effects you believe to be associated with exposure to wireless radiation or EMF's:I believe there is a connection between chronic infections (EBV, Bartonella, Lyme, Helminths...), heavy metals and EMF. That combination seems to be especially detrimental to health. And possibly when adding spike protein – it becomes a very toxic mix. B1a. Sources you experience as causing you Adverse Effects:Holding a phone in the hand while charging has directly noticeable effect. B1b. Sources you can sense, but don't seem to harm you:When adding certain "neutralizers" to a cell phone, I can 'feel' a difference. And as I am highly skeptical of such devices, I doubt it's a placebo effect. B1c. Sources you can use without sensing or being harmed: B1d. Sources that seem to provide benefit (i.e., electrotherapy): B2a. Health conditions you think may contribute to your sensitivity to EMFs including wireless:Chronic infection (EBV, Bartonella, mold toxins) B2b. Health conditions you don't necessarily associate with your sensitivity to EMFs including wireless, but might be relevant: B3. For each subquestion please list up to 5 drugs or therapies or home remedies (if any) B3a. That you recommend, as they helped you tolerate or recover from EMF exposure:Toxopheresis (INUSpherese) to get rid of heavy metals. B3b. That you recommend, but you’re not positive that they help:GABA, Theanine, NAC, Glutathione, Apigenine and other plant extracts. Reducing EMF by using shungite powder mixed in wall paint (only one room, but that already made a difference). B3c. That helped you but you don’t recommend. (e.g., the benefit did not last long or the side effects were too harmful): B3d. Treatments that had no effect:Generally: Detoxing too fast or when dealing with LPS carrying bacteria, killing those off too quickly B3e. Treatments that made your sensitivity worse:35-44 B4. What is your age range?35-44 B5. What year did you become aware of your sensitivity to wireless radiation or electromagnetic fields?2010 B6. What country, state, province, or major city were you living in when you first noticed your sensitivity to wireless or electromagnetic fields?Germany, Mannheim

Why? Please see this page for details as to why: www.synkrografik.com/synkrografik_opportunity.html Whether steps to reduce or eliminate exposure were taken & whether changes in adverse health effects were observed: We have tried to reduce/eliminate exposure. However, it's difficult because we live in an apartment building right downtown; we are pretty much surrounded. Any other info, doc or pictures: I live together with our mom in the city of Gothenburg, Sweden and have my sister on the other side of town. Regardless, symptoms such as tinnitus, blurred vision, heartburn, etc, occurr no matter where. On a regular basis, I visit Copenhagen, Denmark and we experience similar things even there (tinnitus, etc)--it's tiresome! My name is Magnus Palmgren and my mail is: synkrografik.info@proton.me I am--our whole family is--so grateful for the opportunity to tell you about our experience. Thank you!

Describes alleged electronic harassment and remote control of movement and speech, expresses severe distr…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I have been exposed to radiation in my home and it has been shown through my biofeedback reports. Also have suffered Rician exposure etc. I am also worried about lead and radon in my unit. Currently I have discovered that I have been controlled by a system board that I have never had access to and am suffering from V2K and electronic harrassment that causes the temperature in my home and my body to fluctuate and get very high. The system board has controlled my ability to control my own movements and speech. I am currently post mortem without a heartbeat from being in a Canadian Habitat type setting on the outer edge of the atmosphere Minnesota. I am suffering from Litchensteins Disease. Meaning I have no options on getting them to stop controlling me remotely. I would like the ability to get medically assisted suicide due to these issues. The Canadian government recommends 3 medications to control my symptoms to have a normal life. They are Midazolam, Propofol and Rocuronium. In smaller doses it controls the symptoms and at larger doses it allows natural death. I have been in an artificial preserve state for too long. My actual age is 146. Please allow me to speak with a physician that can prescribe these medications in my special circumstances. Also I would like full time nursing care at home updated to my "cadi waiver" if possible. Thank you! Please get back to me on what physician I should see to talk about this delicate situation. I would appreciate it.

Reports electromagnetic hypersensitivity, relocation from New York, cardiac and sensory symptoms attribut…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I am writing as an individual consumer/patient and am hypersensitive to electromagnetic radiation. I had lived in NYC for several decades but had to move out (to a small town in a rural area) when wifi was installed on the subways in NYC, and many were using their cell phones on the subway. (People get around in NYC primarily by public transportation so the subways are generally crowded.) I moved out in September 2019. My symptoms when exposed to RF/EMF are cardiac and tingling in my hands and feet. An additional likely symptom, based on an overnight EEG which showed a “blip of a partial seizure,” is that my brain becomes “irritable.” I develop a weird sensation in my heart when exposed to cell phones. If the exposure is strong enough and long enough, the sensation flips into an arrhythmia. It is much worse in a confined space where the cell phone puts out a stronger signal. The worst incident of this happened when a friend drove me from NYC to Hudson, the small town where I now live. She used GPS on her cell phone for the entire trip which was maybe 1 to 1 1/2 hours even though I asked her to turn it off. I developed a severe arrhythmia which continued for 6 to 8 months after the exposure on the drive. I saw a cardiologist to evaluate same, but it took months to get the appointment since the provider came to Hudson from Albany only occasionally. By the time I saw her, the arrhythmia had stopped. After testing, she said that my heart was “strong” and that the prolonged arrhythmia was the result of exposure to a “stress”—obviously the cell phone radiation in a confined space. If I walk down the one main street in the little town where I now live on a sunny day—when lots of people are always out walking many looking at their cell phones, I develop the “weird sensation” in my heart so I can only walk on the lovely main street at night or on a rainy day when few people are out and so there is little cell phone exposure. Neurological symptoms include tingling in my hands and feet even when exposed to even relatively minor amount of RF/EMF. The other likely neurological symptom started when cell phone towers first went up. I saw a neurologist for another symptom, and he ordered an overnight EEG. He said that on the overnight EEG, I had a “blip of a partial seizure.” He said that I did not have a seizure disorder but rather that my brain was “irritable.” I then told him about recent experiences of being a block or two away from my apartment building, where everything looked familiar, but for a minute, I could not figure out how to get back to my apartment building. Then I would know how to get back. In a similar manner, when I changed subway trains, I sometimes would have a minute in which I could not figure out how to get from one train to another even though I had changed trains in the same place hundreds of times. Then it would come back. The neurologist said that this was the “blip of a partial seizure.” I started taking two capsules of magnesium taurate 3X per day, and this stopped these episodes. When I tried to stop early on, these episodes would return so I have been taking the magnesium taurate ever since. I do not know for sure that my brain being “irritable” was caused by RF/EMF, but it seems likely.
