Neurological symptoms & sleep

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 and parent. My family and I moved into an old home with old wiring in close proximity to powerlines two years ago. Upon moving in we immediately began experiencing symptoms like extreme fatigue, trouble sleeping, joint pain, brain fog, iron regulation and hormonal issues. I also developed skin cancer one year in to living there. After doing extensive research and testing, we realize that we had high levels of EMFs in our house due to the old wiring and proximity to the powerlines. It has been devastating on our health and we eventually had to move. I support HHS taking an active role in examining the potential health and environmental effects of EMFs, RFs and 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. More research needs to be done in this area. It’s very difficult finding experts and practitioners who know how to help people experiencing symptoms from EMFs, RFs and wireless radiation. It’s frustrating and we are still looking for answers about how to heal from this. There is no doubt these frequencies are causing harm to our biology, and most people are completely unaware of it. 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 EMFs, RFs and wireless radiation and public health. Thank you for providing individuals and families with an opportunity to be heard.

I am a telecommunication engineering graduate and my comments are to be considered as an independent individual contributor. I experience ear buzzing, headaches and sometimes skin itch in the presence of EMF equipment such as WiFi routers and mobile phone base stations. To create exposure standards and risk assessment (questions 5. o. and 5.p) methods, several aspects need to be considered: - EMF intensity, variety and duration of exposure; - realistic testing use cases: a SAR measured in a lab might be different from an effective SAR of a phone placing a call from a driving car for example; - environmental base levels of EMF radiations: being in an urban, EMF rich environment after a week of camping is completely different than being in such environment contantly; - mental well being and psychological consequences related to the constant exposure to EMF and associated technologies; phenomena such as "fear of missing out", "feeling overwhelmed by work all the time"... - Federal research priorities (Q16): - how do EMF impact the bioenergetic field of the human body of sick and healthy patients; - what are effective and efficient shielding strategies for sensitive buildings and individuals; e.g. clothing, paints, Faraday cages - the right to be offline and the right to slow down technological use;

I am reporting victimization involving electromagnetic waves. I have been subjected to torture for over five years. Please help me as soon as possible. Hello. I am a Japanese woman reporting on the harm I have suffered involving electromagnetic waves. Please help me escape this illegal torture. Since 2021—over five years ago—I have been subjected to assaults on my brain via electromagnetic waves. (This began a few months after I reported a hacking incident to the government.) I know for certain that I am a victim because I am subjected to torture involving AI voices—known as "Voice to Skull" (V2K)—speaking inside my brain all day long; this is a phenomenon that cannot occur naturally. This constitutes clear torture, but because the voices cannot be heard by others, I am seriously misdiagnosed as having schizophrenia. This is the nature of the directed-energy weaponry used: it deliberately causes such misunderstandings. I have experienced the hacking of my entire body. My visual memory has been crushed into pitch-black darkness, robbing me of the human joy of imagination. The perpetrators do not simply kill a billion people at once; instead, they torture victims, strip them of their lives, and slowly isolate them. I want to prove the truth to my family, friends, and acquaintances, so please release information confirming that these brain-control weapons actually exist. Please acknowledge me as a victim.misunderstand my condition, so please reveal the truth. Brain-control weapons are instruments of human rights violations that cause people who have lived normal lives to be misdiagnosed with schizophrenia. I do not believe I am the only victim of this weaponry. Please urgently help me and all other victims in Japan, the United States, China, and across the globe. Please negotiate with the nation responsible for these crimes and set us free. The torture inflicted on my brain is agonizing. Thank you for your assistance.

I first learned about EMFs after moving into an apartment building, where I shortly developed symptoms I never had before including disruption of sleep, heart palpitations and tinnitus. My daughter mentioned EMFs as a likely cause to me which opened up Pandora's box. I have since learned of the hidden dangers. I am including a link to an article published in the medical literature (PubMed) written by a recognized expert, Martin Pall, discussing further the hazards https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26300312/. Many are subject to these fields and the dangers that they present unknowingly, including children and adults who work in schools for example. I frequently see cell towers on school property. Public awareness and protection need to be increased

Absolutely horrible for our health and well-being and we’re sick of feeling sick and not being able to get restorative sleep!

I am submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure. My family has been living an ultra healthy life for decades. We grow our own food & were enjoying ultimate health. Highly active, we have a rural property we loved working. The entire family made an activity out of growing & preserving our own healthy foods. We have lived near a tiny cell tower since around 1990. On a hill, it was below us. We had little effect noticed. The family was full of energy and activity. After upgrades started about 12 years ago or so, we began to notice headaches, stiffness, sleeplessness, and tension that would not go away. Our animals began to die suddenly with tumors. One by one we were losing our healthy pets. After struggling to walk, I began to try to increase my exercise time to keep fit. Not much was available on how to counteract the effects we were feeling, but nothing that always worked for symptoms were touching this. We found a form of remediation and suddenly I was able to walk again without a cane. I felt strong. The kids were having less headaches. My husband was not as stiff. Literally a month later the hell began. I am unsure of the exact year, but flatbeds showed up. They built the tower up to a hellish monstrosity. Now the tower was even with our doorway in our home up the hill about a half mile away. Due to the incline it was closer to our house. Within several months I completely lost the ability to walk without canes. Exercise makes it worse. Blinding headaches, vision impairment, severe excruciating pain, and inability to sleep or even rest without severe agitation began. It affected me most because I was home the most. Everyone else was waking up in a fetal position, having debilitating headaches/issues. Within 7 months our neighbor who never had neurological issues was dead of neurological issues. Every so many months as we tried to counteract to stay comfortable, upgrades continued. A woman next to the tower has to get spinal injections the pain is so severe. Her husband had cancer several times since staying home after lockdowns as have other neighbors. You can not imagine the excruciating torture from these towers. The health we worked so hard to maintain is in jeopardy from this nightmare. One note- lightning struck around the tower and it went off at one point for most of a night and morning. All of the symptoms completely stopped. I slept, no pain, the relaxing feeling I had enjoyed in my life was back. It was wonderful to feel normal again. As soon as the tower went back on, the pain shot through me so severely I screamed. Our remaining few pets have also been tortured by this. We lost many birds, butterflies, & bees as well. We have had to put out all of our savings to try to counteract this as much as possible, but nothing stops the overall effects from progression. Not only has this affected our family, but I lost two close friends with towers like this one near their homes directly due to towers (I won't go into how I know but it is definite) as their bodies began collapsing and they died when their bodies gave out. That hurt me too. Once they added smart meters in our area (which are data chains with wireless signals that go through property) a year ago, more pets & people we know within miles of our home are having complete neurological collapses. I am talking about blacking out & waking up unable to use arms or legs. Interestingly, it often happens to multiple people at the exact same moments. All of our respite areas within 100 mi are now as bad or worse than our home area due to excessive towers & wind farms (which are worse due to signals used penetrating rock & water as per Dr Lee Merritt). Area Mennonites are now starting to have problems & very few of them have more than occasional cell phone hidden in the barn or on shelf. We have worked hard to stay alive. What is happening to us is horrific. You have no idea what this torture is like. We are doing what we can but need this to be reformatted into SAFE ways of setting up the networks above not directly affecting us. Exercise makes it worse- imagine exercising during being tasered and that gives you an idea of what it is like. Someone - a close relative- with no health problems was thrown from her chair & temporary quadriplegic for a short period of time. I am hearing this from more and more people. If we did not have remediation in place, we would probably be dead. I have lost over 5 years of my life able to do very little. My husband is overwhelmed, and now is struggling to function. He has his own business and can not afford to not work. Day after day we pray for help because we want to live & walk & move again!!! I cry constantly because I envy people who can walk & I can't because of selfish tech. Thank you for listening.

a. The type(s) of wireless technology or RF/EMF source(s) involved e.g., mobile phones, Wi-Fi, smart meters, wireless infrastructure, wearable devices, occupational equipment). This comment involves wireless technology or RF/EMF sources b. The nature, duration, frequency, and approximate timing of the reported exposure(s). Constant elevated exposure in an apartment complex, living in a city c. The potential adverse health effects experienced. In 2023 I started waking up in the middle of the night with my heart pounding and head heaving a pressure. I felt like I had so much pressure on my body, that I was not able to put up with it. We traveled out of the apartment complex into farms in a van with my husband and I started sleeping through the nights and felt immediately different overall. We felt a difference as soon as we left the city. Then upon returning we got a little device that was for private use and reportedly could lower EMF exposure, once it arrived, my symptoms lessened. In 2025 we traveled out of the United states to South Africa where there was no infrastructure even for 4G and 5G, we experienced a drastic shift in our overall happiness and well being not just in us, but people surrounding us. 5 months later when we returned to Clearwater we experienced our thoughts scattered and a physical shock on our bodies so much that we decided to immediately move out of our apartment complex. We discovered widespread mold issues in the apartment complex too. Temporarily we moved downtown, where 5G towers were visible even. My symptoms became worse, kept waking up in the middle of the night and had daily headaches, I started to become forgetful and generally extremely stressed. We purchased a device called EM Guard which could reduce EMF exposure down from a measured 2400 units to 0 in an instant. It’s a harmonizing device. My headaches instantly disappeared and I felt a huge weight lifted from my chest. I can see on my environment that people are numb and less present compared to people in South Africa. The difference is noticeable only for us, who have traveled in and out of the exposure areas and experienced the actual difference. d. When potential adverse health effects first appeared relative to when exposure began and whether any changes in exposure coincided with potential adverse health effects. Please see above included in my answer. h. The types of potential adverse health effects reported. Headaches, forgetfulness, stress, increased mold, lack of focus, overall wellbeing reduced, mood and ambitions got worse i. Onset of potential adverse health effects. 2023 j. Characteristics of the individuals or populations involved, excluding any identifying information such as PII or PHI. Private individual k. Any observed exposure patterns. The exposure in the city and rural areas has been a constant, we experienced our symptoms going away to farms or traveling out of the continent into a less developed country (symptoms immediately improved) and symptoms immediately came back coming back to the exposure l. What standardized methods were used to assess exposure or potential adverse health effects, if any were used. EMF Meters

Based upon what I am experiencing, I have been placed on an illegal gov threat list. One of many sources of torture I experience is different forms of radiation. It comes through the tv, electrical outlets, stove and fridge creating nausea, chest congestion, headaches, diarrhea, dizziness, and unsteadiness when walking. Yet another type I believe is microwave radiation that comes from cell towers which causes extreme burning sensations all over my head mostly and sometimes over my entire upper body leaving welts and burning pain that remains for hours or days. Another source is from outside lights such as the street lights and lights on nearby buildings both inside and outside whose beams stream onto the roof and inside the windows of my condo causing the same type of issues created from electrical outlets. My body feels over heated from the inside and I lose my appetite from this type of radiation along with the electrical sockets. Then there is the radiation that causes the inside of my 2025 CRV Honda hybrid car to overheat making the seats unbearably hot as well as the inside temperature. This situation stems from cars beaming their headlights toward my car for extended periods of time. These are the major sources of radiation but I have also received radiated food once on an international flight that caused my entire insides to feel unbearably over heated. I can send pictures of some of these issues and evidence of others. I will get help to send those. Thank you for looking into this serious threat to innocent mislabeled American citizens.

We are surrounded by a plethora of toxins. Since all toxins affect every person vastly differently, it's time to start looking beyond symptoms alone and pay attention to the broader factors that influence how we feel, including sleep quality, environmental toxins, mold exposure, air quality, and other stressors that place demands on our bodies. EMF's, Wireless Radiation, 5G MUST ALL BECOME part of the conversation on this topic. When it comes to nutrition, medications, or medical procedures, we expect information BEFORE making decisions, but with EMFs, wireless technology, etc. the nefarious part is that the exposure came first, therefore understanding the full picture matters more than focusing on any single piece of it.

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 as a parent in Brevard County, Florida. My daughter began having severe migraines at age 9, during the COVID-19 lockdowns. When her school moved to remote instruction, she spent most of every day streaming online classes, working on a school laptop for hours at a time. During that period the migraines began and quickly became frequent and debilitating. For the past six years she has continued to struggle with these migraines, and adapting her environment to her sensitivities has become progressively more difficult. Her physician has diagnosed her with electromagnetic hypersensitivity. She cannot be near Wi-Fi routers at school, and she develops headaches in classrooms where laptops are in widespread use. This has affected her education, her ability to participate fully in ordinary school settings, and our family's daily life, as we continually work to find environments where she can learn without pain. Children today are exposed to wireless devices and networks for much of the school day, and remote and device-based instruction has made that exposure longer and more constant than in any prior generation. Families like ours have few places to turn for guidance, and schools have no federal framework for accommodating students who report these symptoms. 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. I also ask HHS to consider guidance for schools on accommodating students who report symptoms associated with wireless exposure. Thank you for providing individuals and families with an opportunity to be heard.
