Towers & siting

I suspect the RF from towers and my smart meter are giving me headaches, Especially by buildings i go to which have a tower adjacent to them.

1996 is a long time ago, you need to do serious testing and include testing from other western country’s in your results. There have been many studies over several years and all seem to indicate a serious health concern. Stop talking to and taking money from lobbiests and update the actual science behind it. No 6G until the results are confirmed, considered and included in a national congressional document and voted on in the people’s health and best interest. Also, consideration of the property values that are decimated by having a cell tower in your area. You have to ask why they won’t put one next to schools or fire stations?!

Hello! Ever since the 5G went live and a new cell tower went up near our house, I have had ringing in my ears and continuous ringing in my left ear along with a tingling feeling within my body. I’ve been to an ENT several times and they just diagnose it as sensory tinnitus. The faint tingling feeling, I’ve been to a chiropractor thinking they could help since my other docs have ignored the feeling I have, but the faint tingling continues. Too coincidental since the 5G going live and these issues happening at approximately the same time. And when dominion energy decided to change out our meter to a digital meter without our approval and notification that it was changed out, I started having a hard time with feeling tired and heaviness within the body when waking even after sleeping 7-9 hours, which continues to this day. The meter is close by on the outside wall of our garage, which is near where we sleep on the 2nd floor. Every time we are away, the tiredness and tingling subside quite a bit, but continues again once home after a day or 2. As the years go by the continuous buzzing/ringing in ear seems to get louder. I feel the difference in myself since 5G and the digital meters being installed. Some people are more sensitive to this than others. We should have had a choice to keep our old meter, which was working just fine. These are just a few things I’ve noticed for myself and I am sure there are many others who are sensitive to it as well. Thank you for taking the time to listen to some of us and hopefully there can be some recognition that it does bother many and many that don’t realize it as of now. Sadly, we sound crazy to others who don’t listen and think about what actually can be happening. Thank you again!

I can say for certain that in the presence of emf it affects my hearing and the way my skin feels. Much like a blood pressure episode can cause skin tingles. Once I spaced my self from them and used elements to ground myself while I sleep my puffy skins spots stopped and I felt less tingles. I don't know the long term effects but if short term can cause this I really think we need to examine and research what it does and how to best design infrastructure to mitigate harmful effects while being able to use these new technologies and that is easier now than later when they are more prevalent in the world around us than they already are.

anchorage Alaska Beginning of five k erra would have been 2019 before COVID. There was a new tower up at kinkaid I remember going to a biathlon race night under the thing I was so wound up I couldn't race. That day previously I had been working across from West High wear there is another large antenna on the school.( I hope asd is being paid for this) .I was working in a home. A metal trailor. With wooden add on. the owner had a wireless device in one area an alexe and the other side an echo . I was folding towels by a bed when I felt distinct vibrations comming from the school. I bet we were 2000meters away. The client had described this to me before. I was about 47 and was in tip top shape and healthy. I still am it is hard to stay away from. Technologies. I notice more when I have a high acidic level. For my PH Or I am not Grounded. I had a different encounter in Indiana in the morning running in a neighborhood right across from a tower. After running several minutes I had to stop was immediately dry at the mouth and parched. I previously had not had any Diabetic symptoms like dry mouth. These two incidents led me to research of Havana disease or reaction. I did not seek any treatment.

I am responding to HHS's request for personal experiences with RF/EMF exposure and for input on disclosure, exposure standards, and research priorities. I am writing as an individual and as a husband and father in a household of five, including three children. I am a Navy veteran who served as a Hospital Corpsman, and I now work in technology, so I am comfortable with the devices involved and with tracking my own physiological data. What follows is based on personal experience and my own wearable data, not on clinical research. I first noticed a problem in 2008 while using a wireless gaming controller. Gaming sessions consistently left me feeling unwell, and only after that pattern repeated did I search online and find that other people were describing similar reactions. The symptom came before I had any idea that others were reporting it. I likely had been affected before that point without recognizing the cause. The effect I experience is a stressed, overactivated nervous system. I track this with an Oura ring. With Wi-Fi present, my deep sleep drops from more than an hour per night to about 30 minutes, and my average heart rate variability falls steadily from 50 to 60 ms to the high 20s or low 30s. When this stress persists, I get sick more often and my mood becomes less stable. In heavy Wi-Fi environments my sleep is affected that same night, and I often become dizzy to the point of needing to lie down. In 2008, we removed Wi-Fi from our home. I felt noticeably calmer almost immediately. Over the following [weeks/months], my children argued and fought much less, and my wife's frequent migraines stopped and her mood stabilized. Removing the router was not enough. Many household products contain Wi-Fi or Bluetooth radios that transmit continuously or keep searching for a connection even when they are not in use, and most give the owner no way to turn them off. To get our home to a low exposure level, I had to physically remove the wireless chips from our television, garage door opener, gaming consoles, and remote controls. Most households could not do this, and most people would not know these devices are transmitting at all. Based on that experience, I would ask HHS to consider two things. First, products should clearly disclose every radio they contain, whether it transmits while idle, and how often. Second, consumers should have a reliable way to disable those radios, ideally a physical switch, without losing the product's basic function. Right now the only way to opt out is to take the device apart, which is not a realistic choice for families, schools, or people who believe they are sensitive. I would also ask HHS to look closely at cumulative exposure in suburban areas. In communities near me such as Fishers, Indiana, 5G infrastructure has been deployed densely into residential neighborhoods. Residents now live with that infrastructure on top of their neighbors' Wi-Fi routers and the phones, tablets, and computers in every home. No single source may exceed federal limits, but no one is measuring or accounting for the total. Because federal law prevents local governments from denying these installations on health grounds when they meet FCC limits, residents have no local recourse. The federal standard is effectively the only protection they have. Other countries have chosen more precautionary limits. Switzerland and Italy, for example, set much lower limits in places where people live, sleep, and spend long periods of time, including homes and schools. HHS should examine these approaches and the evidence behind them as it advises on whether current U.S. limits, which date to 1996, are adequate. Finally, I would encourage research into whether biological effects depend on how signals are transmitted, not only on how much power they carry. Modern wireless signals are pulsed and modulated in complex ways. If certain modulation or pulsing patterns turn out to matter more than others, that knowledge could guide the development of wireless protocols that are more compatible with human biology while still delivering the connectivity people rely on. Wearable HRV and sleep trackers could offer a low-cost way to study this in real-world settings, especially where participants do not know whether a transmitter is on. In short, I ask HHS to support clear disclosure of every radio in consumer products along with a reliable way to turn them off, to evaluate cumulative neighborhood exposure rather than single sources, to review the more protective limits used in countries like Switzerland and Italy, and to fund research on whether modulation and pulsing patterns drive biological effects.

15 years ago I was diagnosed as having "wifi [or electronic] sensitivity" . My ears have frequency shifting white noise that is not diagnosed as tinnitus. Some days, especially when a storm is coming , it becomes unmanageable &relentless. Going to sleep is my only remedy. I took a sailing course &went far out into the Gulf waters away from land , the noise for the first time in 25 years STOPPED , until we got close to land again when it immediately returned. For the past 4 years I traveled the U.S. with a RV/ 17,000 miles. In the final year of travel, I would make way to drive AROUND major cities ... as it became apparent while approaching large hubs, and without visual of a tower approaching, my chest would tighten &I would have to pull off the interstate... when feeling "better" to proceed down the road , the culprit would appear on the horizon: large communication towers on the outskirts of cities : the ones with huge white circular discs seemingly would give me what I can only describe as a sudden onset pseudo heart attack. I had to quit driving anywhere near these towers &now I do not travel , for many reasons...but those towers are the main reason for staying off the roads near cities. I am thankful someone is looking into this.

I am glad HHS is requesting this. Because I use no wireless phone anymore, I have gotten cut off from much of society. That is very painful to me, Close relatives even, don't speak to me. They think I'm not sane, certainly stubborn and ignorant. But I am none of the above. I was trained as a scholar at U C Berkeley, in the PhD Program. Have intelligence, discernment and use logic. I started reading about the dangers of wireless , several books by medical doctors (they have all disappeared from book sellers shelves). There is a definite prejudice against not following the latest technology. People are addicted to 'Smart' phones, but they make one dumb. A cashier cannot do simple addition when the computer stops adding. People look for confirmation of any opinion, thought, feeling on their device. . It has more of a negative effect than heroine addiction (doesn't destroy individual lives as quickly, but is 100 or 1000 times more widespread.) From the beginning of the 1st role out of cell phones I knew something was wrong. I had bought a cell phone and started using it. Mysteriously, it made my wrist hurt. Then as cell towers went up, I would feel dizzy, nausea and get a severe headache. I bought a meter that registers the level of wireless radiation to try to avoid it as much as possible. That helped at first; it was amazing to see how the levels varied. I could find hotels which had no wireless or a lower level. I also learned there could be a 'white spot' in a restaurant for example where the radiation had a gap. One book sugested people might have a signiture: a partcular level irriitated them the most while perhaps higher ones did not,. (An idea, but I don't know it's accuracy. But there was a amazingly high reading at a subway station in Berlin and it did not feel bad. There is a lot more research that should be done, especially for the sake of the health of Nature. I think wireless along with many other pollutants is killing Nature. AN enormous number of trees along the road to our Ski Basin are dead or in the process of dying;; an old but still present enemy are the asbestus fumes from brakes but the addition of all the drivers being on their cell phones is the last stroke. Ones body gradually adapts to the radiation and feels it less. But all diseases are on the riise; It affects the digestive process, many become obese, fewer become abnormally sklinny. It's not the only cause but is added to all the other causes like a blanket of harm. Wireless is a stimulant, it affects my heart, Taktta Cardia, I can feel it racing at night, I cannot sleep without some powerful sleep aid. It has sped up time, people alk faster, like robots. It has benefits but is used far too much and not only as a necessary tool but as one lady told me as I asked her to turn off her phone in my gallery. Oh, No I can;t! It's more me than Me! (You are in trouble Lady, I thought to myself..)

There is a direct link to wokeness and emf exposure. Those who live near 5G towers suffer from Trump derangement syndrome.

In 2020 our neighborhood was one of the pilot locations for the first 5G millimeter wavelength internet/phone service. It was a P.U.D. community including condos, homes, townhomes, all in a gated neighborhood. My wife and daughter complained of headaches and an inability to concentrate. I felt comfortable on the outside and hot inside while at home. We went camping nearly every weekend for a year in the Hoosier National Forest where there is no 5G, and very little cell service or radio transmissions. We felt relief in less than a day and felt all symptoms return within minutes of being back home. We sold that home and moved to an area without 5G and have been comfortable sense.
