The installation of a smart meter outside of my kitchen and only five feet from my dining area within two days provoked an onset of angina pain necessitating the taking of nitroglycerin several times a week and the return to my cardiologist after having been feeling stable and nitro free for over six months. Three years earlier I had experienced two cardiac artery vasospasms within a three week period. For two and a half years I was experiencing periodic angina pains, which were relieved by the nitroglycerin!
Prior to the smart meter installation I had been feeling stable and the best I had been in several years!
Very suddenly after the smart meter installation the angina pains reappeared! They were relieved when I place a 1/32 inch aluminum sheild against my kitchen wall and directly behind the smart meter!
HHS RFI — Reported Health Effects and Research Gaps
I request that HHS investigate potential biophysical interactions between RF exposure and passive metallic implants. I have two titanium neck implants measuring approximately 6 cm and 7 cm, work in direct line of sight of a telecommunications tower, and have developed new cardiovascular and neurological symptoms. Kranold et al. (2025) identify implant-related electromagnetic dosimetry as a neglected safety issue, raising concerns about whether current exposure guidelines adequately protect people with implants. I have been unable to locate a physician qualified to evaluate this specific concern. I urge HHS to identify this as a clinical and research gap and facilitate independent scientific investigation under real-world RF exposure conditions.

My sister’s life has been severely impacted from exposure to radiation.
She suffers from many negative side effects, including heart palpitations, cramping in her feet and hands, brain fog, sleeplessness, cramping in her legs and fatigue. She is forced to isolate to survive in this world.
am not exaggerating when I say that cell towers, cell phones, wi-fi, etc. are ruining the quality of my life. Our adult son is so debilitated by EMFs he cannot work or even socialize with people who carry cell phones, which is everyone. He cannot get disability coverage for this disability, so my husband and I are supporting him with our dwindling retirement money and part-time jobs. We've already moved once to get away from cell towers, but they are EVERYWHERE.
I am a 73-year-old retired dietitian, in excellent health, take no medications, 90% of my diet is organic, pasture raised, and grass-fed. Our home has a landline phone, no satellite dishes for years, and we've never had Wi-Fi. I own a cell phone but only turn it on when I need to use it.
My debilitating issues (headaches, severe brain fog, heart palpitations) with cell phones and cell towers began as we all emerged from the covid lockdown. I'd heard rumors that telecom companies would be taking advantage of fewer people on the streets to begin putting up a large number of cell towers. I thought this was silly because they seemed to have carte blanche to put cell towers up wherever and whenever they chose. I've since learned to pay more attention to "rumors".
My first major hit from a new cell tower was in the parking lot of our local Loveland, Colorado county building when I went in to register a new car. I had been to this building many times in prior years and had no issues. On this day as I walked across the parking lot to the building, I quickly developed a crushing headache. I'm not a person who gets headaches. Later, as I left the building and got in my car, I looked up to see a huge, new cell tower that wasn't there the year before. It's so powerful that I can no longer drive along that road without getting a headache.
That was the beginning of my very restricted, and not-feeling-well life because of cell towers and other people's cell phones. Last year we moved to a smaller town nearby that we had visited often in the past thinking we would get some relief. It's WORSE because it's the tourist town of Estes Park, Colorado and they did their own maximizing of cell towers to "enhance" the visitor experience.
Following is a list of places I can no longer go both in Loveland and Estes Park Colorado. We also have friends in the cities of Fort Collins and Longmont which are also EMF'd to the max.
- Library - Estes Park and Loveland
- Restaurants/coffee houses, theatres (usually because of the other patron's cell phones)
- Quilt shop (on the second floor of a bank with a cell tower attached to the outer wall)
- Also the quilt shop in Loveland
- Quilters Guild meetings (in a church with a cell tower in the parking lot)
- Musical festivals and events the town's park because of a looming cell tower.
- A friend's home in Ft. Collins because they live next to a high school with TWO towers. (She is constantly sick)
- The two hospitals in Loveland and one in Estes Park are so EMF'd I cannot drive by without getting a headache and heart palpitations. I had to cut short a hospital visit with a friend because I thought I would pass out. I used to work in a hospital so it's not fear of hospitals.
- My favorite walking trail in Loveland.
- Estes Park schools (elementary, jr. high, and high school) are in a section of town where I cannot drive down the street because I get headaches and heart palpitations.
- Both the Loveland and Estes Park community centers
- Estes Park fairgrounds
- I cannot drive on highway 36 between Estes Park and Longmont/Boulder because of the cylindrical towers every 1/2 mile.
- While stopped at the newer traffic lights my hands cramp on the steering wheel. Cramping goes away when I'm about a block away from the intersection.
- A friend just moved to Greeley, Colorado and it's difficult to visit because the drive starting from I-25 along highway 34 to Greeley is littered with cell towers and stuff on the traffic light poles. By the time I reach her lovely EMF free home, I'm so sick it's hardly worth it.
- Before applying for a job or planning to go ANYWHERE I need to visit first to see if I can tolerate the EMF level. My current temp job is about to end and I'm terrified that I won't be able to find a job environment that won't make me sick.
Tomorrow my son and I are going to venture into town to see if there is any EMF activity at the new indoor carousel because I'd like to take my granddaughter later this week.
I am so grateful to this administration's HHS and its attention to the EMF problem. EMFs are getting worse every year. We are considering moving to another town, but we can't afford to move again AND I'm sure there will be towers and people with their super powerful cell phones in line behind me at the grocery store.
I am submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure.
I am responding from the perspective of a patient.
I have been affected by wireless radiation such as wifi routers, cellphones, and celltowers since 2019 starting at 14 years old. My symptoms include headaches, fatigue, joint pain, heartbeat irregularities, shaking, balance problems, severe brain-fog to the point of losing the ability to speak and understand language, and widespread pain. These symptoms increased in severity the longer and more often I was in proximity to wireless radiation such as cellphones or buildings with active wifi routers or hotspots. Additionally, the longer I was exposed to wireless radiation the longer it took my body to recover enough to handle being exposed again.
I was already homeschooled, which allowed me to control the environment I was in most of the day, but I had to drop out of any extra-curricular programs that were held inside a building as well as limit my time in public places due to wifi and cellphone exposure.
In 2020, 5G towers started to be put up in my neighborhood in Chicago and I discovered that these towers hurt me to the extent that walking past one would keep me housebound and incapable of doing much besides laying still for the next 24 hours. My family was forced to move away from the city as more and more 5G towers were put up, limiting the places I could go.
Currently, I live with my parents in a completely wired house, keep my phone on airplane mode whenever it is on my person, and continue to be severely limited in activities and outings due to symptoms from wireless radiation. I am unable to have an in-person job in any building with wifi and neither can I do any service such as jury duty. I am nearly housebound; Going to the grocery store, to church, to friend’s houses, or virtually any indoor public space has to be carefully planned and my exposure time limited to an hour maximum in order for me to be able to heal within 36 hours.
I support HHS taking an active role in examining the potential health and environmental effects of wireless radiation. Questions about human health should be addressed by federal agencies with appropriate expertise in medicine, biology, epidemiology, and public health, and the experiences of individuals and families who report being affected should be considered alongside the scientific evidence.
I urge HHS to carefully evaluate these experiences and the scientific evidence, identify gaps in current research, give particular attention to children and other potentially vulnerable populations, and establish appropriate federal research priorities regarding wireless radiation and public health.
Thank you for providing individuals and families with an opportunity to be heard.

For several years I have been experiencing illegal communications via some type of signal coming into my home that interacts with me personally, and no one else in my vicinity seems to be aware of these signals as they happen. These people have also communicated with me anonymously through chats, forums, and posts on X. I am aware of this due to the nature of what they speak about. Years ago, at least two of the perpetrators of these crimes moved in next door to my previous address. I could feel energy and hear them speaking as though they were inside my room. When I looked out my backdoor, I could then see them using handheld devices that are about the size of a cellphone. I cannot identify the devices because they were too far away, but I am aware that a website sells devices that are marketed, even on well known online retail sites, to harass and nauseate neighbors using frequencies. That website also sells items that a criminal might use to impersonate the police.
I could hear their dialogue vaguely from a distance and realized that they were saying the same repetitive things that I could hear while out of earshot, which seem to be directed to my head. They speak of human sex auctions and obeying guardianship arrangements in what they referred to as a "kingdom." They have promised me a lot of money. They have also interrogated me with questions and all sorts of pervasive ideas. I find it very alarming that one of these people looks very much like the woman who brought the second COVID shot to the table at the County Fair grounds, where vaccines were being administered. She dropped the vial and acted like she was trying to catch it in her white coat, almost as if playfully juggling it while laughing, then a vial fell to the floor. She picked it up, and the other woman administered the shot. Shortly after leaving, I knew something was wrong. I am certain I almost died of a heart attack that night but was terrified to go to the hospital due to fears of being quarantined and having unwanted treatments forced upon me. The next day I was a total wreck and a full cascade of residual effects began, including muscle weakness, heart palpitations, rapidly worsening vision, hot flashes, and many more symptoms that have waxed and gradually waned over the next few years. I remember how the vaccine manufacturers were given immunity from lawsuits and I felt totally helpless, depending upon only myself and my knowledge for recuperation.
Back to the issue of wireless surveillance, monitoring, and frequency interactions with my body- I have suffered daily every day for several years from these assaults, and in my current neighborhood there are people around who work for the hospital who exhibit strange behavior, in my opinion. I live in constant fear. The people operating the signals speak often to me about hospitals. They tell me I have cancer. They say "HEART ATTACK" very often, multiple times a day. They say they infected me with something. They tell me to kill myself. I try to ignore them, but at times I feel compelled to vent this torturous enraging energy, so at times I speak or yell back to them. They can hear me. It is my impression that they are attempting to exert guardianship over me in a medical or psychological kidnapping. They have spoken of me going somewhere with them. They threaten my family members.
There seems to be a small faint current that crawls all over my skin and even private areas, as they speak perverted things to me. They demand an answer that I will agree to sign an NDA. I adamantly refuse. They insist we are friends. I do not know them and do not want to. We are not friends. My neighbors had been trying to lure me next door in an effort to make that statement true. They offered me heroin in a chat that I would never accept. They claimed to know some of the world biggest celebrities. They claimed to be affiliated with band members and family members of well known bands. They claimed to have been monitoring me for decades as their spoiled children grew up and gave their children access to remote surveillance in order to monitor potential girlfriends and potential artists. One of them acts like an entertainment secret contract enforcer.
They have tried to kill me multiple times, mostly with remote palpitations because I am taking no more vaccines, I am seeking no help through novel pharmaceuticals, and I try to stay as far away from these people as I can and only make short trips to stores or other places I need to go. They have directly affected my livelihood and my well-being. They interfere with relationships. I am aware that remote health applications can be used for good and also for great evil. I see the failure to address this issue by appropriate authorities as one of the greatest failures in United States history. I am not under investigation, have done nothing to warrant this treatment, and find this situation a travesty of justice and an abomination of human morality.
In the summer of 2023, August 23 to be exact, I had my first episode of dizziness. I just chalked it up to lack of food, water and working all day in the heat. The following week I continued to get extremely dizzy. At that point I had no idea what was causing me to get dizzy because I made sure I was drinking plenty of water, eating and staying out of the heat. A week later while riding as a passenger in our truck I suddenly got dizzy out of nowhere. The episode came on with a vengeance. I felt like I had to throw up along with having heart palpitations. Even closing my eyes didn’t help as it did prior to this. We were about an hour and a half away from home at this point when the episode happened. I was unsure of how I would deal with the way I was feeling for that amount of time. I actually came up with the idea to cover my entire head with a black towel we always carry in our truck because we have dogs that sometimes make a mess. For some reason that seemed to work. I rode home with a black towel over my head for over an hour. Once we arrived home I took the towel off of my head. I was still very dizzy. My husband had to carry me into the house because I was unable to walk. He put me in bed. I was never able to go to sleep because even closing my eyes in a dark room didn’t relieve the dizzy feeling. After a few hours of laying in bed, the dizziness finally let up. That was around 7:30 pm. This episode lasted about 6.5 hours. I was absolutely exhausted. Including the next day.
After that experience I would have daily episodes but not like what I explained previously. Fast forward to November 23, 2023, Thanksgiving Day, exactly 3 months from my first episode I had a major episode. So major I felt like I needed to go to the hospital. My heart was pounding so hard and so fast I felt like it was going to come out of my chest. Definitely more than a palpitation. I thought I might be having a heart attack. The dizziness felt like I was on a Merry-Go-Round out of control. No matter what I tried it didn’t seem to help. I felt like I was going to throw up but never did. My husband called 911 because I asked him too. They came, took my vitals and said everything was normal. They didn’t feel that it was necessary for me to go to the hospital but took me anyway because I thought it would be better to be checked out more thoroughly. I did go and of course all they could tell me was I had Vertigo. They gave me the equivalent of Dramamine and sent me on my way. I’m not one to rush off to the doctor for things. I try to figure it out myself. So for me to make the decision to go to the Emergency Room was HUGE!
I decided I needed to find out what was going on so I contacted my Naturopath. She asked that I see an ENT Specialist before she proceeded with me. Long story short, I did see an ENT and all that was found is that I had Vertigo. After the findings of the ENT I contacted my Naturopath again. She started me on a liver detox. It didn’t work. I pretty much gave up on figuring out what was going on. For months I suffered with what I called bobble head doll syndrome. In my head it felt like it was bobbling all of the time and maybe once a week I’d have a dizzy spell here and there. Not a great way to live. You can’t trust yourself. I was in fear of driving for fear of a dizzy spell coming on at any time. I started to lose my independence because I had to depend on my husband to drive me around. In my opinion I was/am too young to be in this type of situation.
Fast forward again, to end of the month in December 2024, I was scrolling through my Telegram channels. It is a channel that gives healthful living tips. This particular post I paid attention to was regarding radiation toxicity. It said if you have these symptoms, one of them being dizziness another being heart palpitations (I don’t remember the other symptoms that were listed) you need to take 8 drops of iodine daily. I had been taking 3 drops a day before seeing this so I was a bit skeptical but tried it. So glad I did because once I started taking the 8 drops of iodine the bobble head doll feeling and dizziness went away.
One thing I should mention is I am typically healthy. I’m 65 years young. I’m not on any medications and never have been. I thank God for that. I’m also thankful that a I was able to figure out what was going on with my body. I believe God sent me that post on Telegram. I can’t imagine living my life the way I felt for over a year. It was taking a toll on my metal health, physical health and also my personal relationships.
I am affected by EMF 5g. My symptoms are nausea, dizziness, heart palpitations, digestive issues, red skin, tingling, burning sensation, muscle aches, and pain fatigue, insomnia, anxiety, depression, headaches, and impaired memory. You tell doctors they do not believe me. Never in my life had I had this trouble with any of this until it rolled out. Now there is a 5g tower right down the road from my house. Its going to continue to make us sicker and sicker. I want my health back!
My name is Mana Washio, and I currently live inSpringfield, MA. I became EHS in 2013, when my husband and I lived in Watertown, MA.
While we were on vacation, NSTAR came and installed a bank of infamous Smart Meters. Our bedroom was surrounded by them, and there were also two circuit breaker panels underneath our bedroom (because we lived on the 1st floor). We also had a WiFi router in our bedroom, without knowing its harm.
Immediately after the Smart Meter installation, I started having piercing headaches, as if someone was inserting an ice pick into my brain. It was SO bad, I could not sleep at all. I also developed all sorts of GI issues, heart palpitation, chest pain, concentration difficulties, and so on.
My symptoms subsided when I went away from my home, and it became worse when I came home. I also felt VERY strong pain standing right in front of the Smart Meters outside, so I knew what was causing the problem.
EHS diagnosis was extremely difficult to attain, because there are VERY few doctors who could diagnose. I was only able to get one in 2022, after moving to RI.
I was a performing musician for many years, but large concert venues where people gather with their cell phones became the hardest place to work. I was forced to completely switch my career, and now I work from home as a Health Coach & a Reiki practitioner. Although I love my current job, I had to start all over and had completely different training before I was able to start making decent salary.
In July 2023, I took the National Board Exam for Health and Wellness Coaching. 3 years ago in 2020, I actually took the same exam but miserably failed, due to the severe short-term memory and vision issues I developed due to the high EMF exposure at the test site. Even though I had requested, I was not given any accommodations I needed. So I forced myself to go into the test center.
In 2023, I submitted the accommodation request again, along with the formal EHS diagnosis from MD and two supporting letters. I also explained what happened to me 3 years ago. But they did not give me the necessary accommodations right away. My accommodation request was only granted after I wrote the 3rd letter to them, quoting directly from the Department of Justice website, under the “Exams and Courses” section for people with disability. After the approval, I was finally able to bring in a few EMF shielding materials. Thankfully, my short-term memory and vision were intact this time, and I passed the exam.
It is VERY clear that the EMF safety standards set by FCC is grossly outdated and inadequate. I strongly urge FCC to immediately review the current safety standards, and truly reflect the harms of these manmade radiation. There are THOUSANDS of published, peer-reviewed scientific studies from independent scientists (who have NO monetary ties with the industry) that clearly show EMF's biological harm, and FCC simply cannot continue to ignore the significant impact it has already made to people, animals and environment.
