Neurological symptoms & sleep

To Whom It May Concern, 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 suffer (greatly) from all the wireless communication (EMFs) exposure. I suffer with terrible head pain, ringing in my ears (tinnitus), with a severe vibrational/tingling sensation in my mouth and face. Along with extreme fatigue and brain fog. So much so that I've been medically disabled with this condition (EHS). To the point that not only am I unable to find a "safe" work environment. But I am unable to find a "safe" living situation. Meaning, I've been living out of my vehicle for years constantly moving from one spot (which I can only tolerate for so long) to another spot. Non-stop 24 hours a day. It has now gotten to the point, thanks to all the newer, stronger and more harmful technologies that are being deployed, that I will have to leave the city (greater Seattle area) I've been living in for the past 40 years to some place out in the boonies. Essentially becoming a hermit and living "off the grid". Which in and of itself is a very unhealthy lifestyle. 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. Mark Donohue Edmonds WA

From 2019 to 2023, I lived in a 3rd story apartment where I was unkowingly exposed to high chronic levels of emf. My husband and I moved there in 2019. Later that year, I started having inexplicable exhaustion, inflammation and body aches which have been worsening progressively while living there, despite me getting various therapies and lifestyle and dietary improvements. We also had unexplained infertility. In 2022, I decided to get an EMF meter. My husband and I were surprised to measure very high levels of radiation in specific zones that resembled 'beams' cutting through our apartment, even when our wifi was powered off. Certain locations in our living room where we worked from home, and the kitchen where we spend a lot of time cooking, were registering levels of radiation that were far above the normal threshold. In 2023, my husband was walking home and noticed a discreetly hidden cell tower in the parking lot a couple blocks from our apartment. He noticed that the positioning of the tower correlated uncannily to the angle of the beams in our apartment, entering from the side where we have a large glass patio balcony door. We think we have finally found the culprit for the ridiculous levels of emf we had been chronically exposed to, along with many other residents who may be suffering unknowingly because of it. At that time, I reached out to the city to ask who authorized the tower location and height, but received a response that they have very little regulatory control over it. I am so glad we are finally looking into this at a federal level. Can we better regulate the companies to require actual research proving the required clearances to avoid health effects? Can we also require ongoing monitoring since this is a new technology and start getting some longer term studies? Though we had lived in that area for many years and enjoyed its quiet and safe community, this issue has been so harmful to our health and quality of life that we decided to move out because of it. In 2024, I received laproscopic diagnosis for stage 4 endometriosis and adenomyosis. Looking back, I wish I didn't live in that apartment, or knew earlier so I could have moved out. Now I am living in a new place with a lot less EMF exposure. I do not get the chronic headaches or fatigue that I used to feel in that apartment. I am on the journey to recovering and feeling better. For the health and wellbeing of all US residents and citizens, please scrutinize the health impacts of these cell towers on the surrounding community. The proper location and height of these towers is so critical to the health of so many that could be impacted.

I can hear a high pitched buzzing sound that gives me headaches with a 5G tower outside my window. After I pointed it out to other people they can hear it too. I was wondering why my first words when I was 2 years old was “big tower”. I could only imagine what we are being subjected to and how it’s affecting our bodies. I was wondering why my first words as a child was “big tower”.

It gives me headaches body pain fatigue . Its horrible for our body !

I used to wear my phone in my right leg pants pocket, after a few years I developed a numb patch on my leg where I used to keep my phone. I feel more sensitive to the cell phone radiation now. That area starts to hurts a bit after only a short period if I put the phone there. I try to keep it on airplane mode as much as possible now to avoid unnecessary data transfer through my body tissue. If I hold the cell phone to my head for a call I start to develop a headache after a brief period, so I try to use it on speakerphone as much as possible or limit telephone call length. I don’t get these symptoms when using a corded headset. I look forward to broader implementation of fiber optic internet and a return to hard wired communications systems wherever practical. It can’t be healthy for society to be swimming through a sea of radio signals constantly. What are the long term effects on trees & wildlife? I would like to know. Thanks for doing this inquiry.

I am submitting this comment as an individual patient with a scientific background in biological sciences and as someone who has experienced a substantial decline in health and daily functioning accompanied by significant sensitivity to environmental stimuli. I respectfully ask HHS to include individuals with complex, multisystem conditions and reported electromagnetic sensitivity in its evaluation of potential health effects associated with electromagnetic fields (EMFs) and radiofrequency (RF) radiation. Before March 2021, I was healthy, physically active, employed full-time, and able to participate in farm work and normal daily activities without the limitations I experience today. Following an acute reaction to my first Moderna COVID-19 vaccination in March 2021, I developed persistent health problems involving autonomic dysfunction, heat intolerance, abnormal heart-rate responses, neurological symptoms, fatigue, and other multisystem complaints. Subsequent medical evaluations identified several conditions, including dysautonomia/POTS, mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS), and small-fiber neuropathy confirmed by skin biopsy. I am not presenting this history as proof that electromagnetic exposure caused my illness. Rather, I am asking HHS to recognize the importance of investigating environmental factors that may aggravate symptoms in people with existing neurological, autonomic, or multisystem dysfunction.

I am an individual consumer attesting that I suffered from insomnia, anxiety and heart palpitations before I started turning off my phone and my wifi at night. If I travel and cannot turn off wifi the symptoms reappear. My mom lives by a cell tower. When she stays at my house for over one week her insomnia and anxiety dissppear.

I was inducted into the "targeted individual" program when I moved to I moved to Red Bluff, California in 2015. From that year onward, drones and helicopters followed me constantly, and there were instances of obviously staged street theater, where strangers would "randomly" harass me, and then never be seen again. Since around 2023, these instances of street theater and drone stalking have decreased in frequency and intensity, while unexplained police scrutiny has stopped entirely (at least, as far as I can tell). However, from 2023 onward, Direct Energy Weapons (DEWs) have been used to induce extreme insomnia, far beyond any sleep troubles or disruptions I had ever suffered prior to 2023, and I've been subject to noise campaigns from strategically-placed "neighbors" who always move into the same building shortly after I do, and are always moved into the apartment directly upstairs from my own, on the next floor up. These tenants/actors are often described as relatives of the apartment manager - and each manager, each time, gives me the same explanation for the noise: that the noise campaign is really said "neighbor" yelling at his video game all night long. Because this happens everywhere I move, social workers, therapists and police are able to dismiss my claim of being targeted as the unserious ramblings of a delusional, paranoid individual or habitual liar (exactly as planned). But I believe these neighbors function as a second layer of deception, an alternate cover-up story for the use of Direct Energy Weapons to prevent me from sleeping at night. Here's how the double-bluff works: Everyone around me is made to believe that the disturbance isn't real and I'm simply insane or a liar; meanwhile, I am made to believe that these assailing neighbors are the root cause of the disruptions (as opposed to the DEWs). In addition, I've discovered evidence that Red Bluff, California may altogether be a "Potemkin Village" of sorts, a covert hub for criminal activity of a particularly heinous character. There is a widespread and long-standing allegation that the city is a hotbed for the trafficking of minors; this was acknowledged in 1987 by the Los Angeles Times, which described the town as "a modern-day Sodom and Gomorrah." Further, the book "The New Satanists" by nonfiction writer Linda Osborne Blood (published 1994) shed light on the 1989 case of Cynthia Angell, a Red Bluff attorney who was kidnapped and threatened by a Satanist hit-squad when she began investigating Michael Aquino, a now-deceased military officer and founder of the Satanist "Temple of Set," after Red Bluff children identified him as their rapist (one of many such allegations toward Aquino around the country). Meanwhile, it was alleged by Ted Gunderson, a now-deceased senior special agent of the FBI, that historic "Chinese" tunnels in downtown Red Bluff are being used for child trafficking. (These tunnels are so-called due to a local rumor, which claims they were once used by a Chinese-American immigrant lodge for moving/using opium, or to flee the ethnic-cleansing campaign by Red Bluff's white-supremacist "Anti-Coolie League" in 1886.) Red Bluff, California is widely reported to be one of the most violent, crime-laden cities in the state, and it is notorious in the North State for an unusual frequency of women and girls going missing, or dying under dubious circumstances. Californians living in neighboring counties, Butte and Shasta, have commented via Reddit that they are afraid to go near this town, or speak to anyone who lives here because of the rampant crime, abundancy of meth, and the gruesome sex-crime scandals which have plagued the town for at least four decades - as well as a generally sinister, "haunted" aura. I believe the same notorious cabal is involved in targeting me with DEWs - among the other methods of systematic torment - with the aim to terrify, isolate, demoralize and destabilize me to the point of committing suicide. I've been hit particularly hard over the past three days, being prevented from sleeping more than two or three hours at night, and not at all during the day. As a result, as I type this, I can barely stand still without falling to the floor, I've been uncontrollably throwing up a bitter-tasting, foamy substance, my body is soaking itself profusely in wave after wave of sweat that smells like sour milk, my eyelids and irises are pure red, and there are red blotches all over my face. If a 34 year old (born 1992) dies in Red Bluff on or after the date I am sending this (October 10, 2026), I was killed in retaliation for sending this message. With regard to the innumerable testimonies on criminal "gangstalking" around our country and the world, please also explore and take seriously the journalistic investigations and exposés by Targeted Justice, Ana Toledo and Isaac Weishaupt. Thank you for your time.

I am a parent who's kids were born in 1991, 1993, 1996 & 1998. My first 2 kids have severe mental disorders that keep them from being able to function in society. ADHD and Paranoia, Schizophrenia, addiction are the diagnosis. They were allowed to use internet devices as much as other kids their age. My youngest 2 adult kids suffer sleeplessness and compulsive internet use, also the heath issues associated with low sleep quality like irritability and anger outbursts, both of them spending up to 16 hours per day online after graduating school. Depression and non hodgkins lymphoma cancer almost took my youngest Sons life. He has to continue to be screened. I cannot sleep with a cell phone near me. I turn mine on airplane mode every night, and try to keep it several feet from my sleeping quarters but I worry that it's still receiving signal like scanning for wifi or something I don't know about, since warnings are NOT ISSUED.. I would much rather just have a good old rotary phone wired into my home. The distractions on online browsing and social media has eaten up HUNDREDS, MAYBE THOUSANDS (?) of hours of my Lifetime.. I only started using it in 2002 I think we need to move away from using a phone & wifi for EVERYTHING WE DO! It's not natural for kids to be sitting down obsessing on a browser or video game and making online friends instead of real life friends.. IT STUNTS THEIR EMOTIONAL, PHYSICAL & MAYBE EVEN SPIRITUAL GROWTH. I am now raising a grandson who my adult child is not able to due to untreated mental disorders and addiction. He suffers from ADHD and struggles with the desire to engage in compulsive internet usage as well. He has fits of rage when he must stop even after hours of use.. THEY JUST CANT GET ENOUGH. There's also terrible MOOD SWINGS associated with having to stop playing or watching online video platforms. He has short attention span and highly distracted and distracting to others in the classroom at school. I have removed all gaming devices, tablet, phone etc so he can just focus on reality. ALL THIS JUNK IS DISTRACTING KIDS AND MAKING EDUCATION AN UPHILL BATTLE FOR PARENTS. ITS A WALL BETWEEN THEM AND THEIR EDUCATION AND REAL LIFE SOCIAL EXPERIENCES, RELATIONSHIPS AND BONDING WITH FAMILY & FRIENDS. Thank you for listening to my experience and my warnings.. the internet is disconnecting our youth from their true friends family and FUTURE.

I am someone who notices a distinct effect on my own well being when exposed to EMF over a significant period of time. I especially like to keep my EMF exposure low while I sleep, as my sleep is much more restorative if I do. I urge the government to look more into the studies showing harm from EMFs. Green Med Info had put together over 1000 of them
