Neurological symptoms & sleep

My friend had to quit her job as a teacher because of the effects of RF. She missed out last weekend on a dear friend's wedding because she can't be around everyone having a cell phone on. Had a party at my house. Everyone turned off their cells except one person (we needed it for something on the television. She immediately got a headache and had to leave.

Declaration of Toby Stover Toby Stover declares under penalty of perjury the following: 1. I live in Ulster County, New York. 2. I never gave consent, nor do I consent today, to continuous, involuntary exposure of pulsed modulated, biologically active electrical and radio frequency / microwave (RF/MW) radiation emitted into my home or on my property. 3. I was perfectly healthy, living in my home for many years with an analog electric utility meter but was made ill by the electrical and pulsed modulated RF/MW radiation coming from a “smart” digital electric utility meter which was installed on my property without my consent. 4. After having a grid-tied solar system installed on my home, Central Hudson Electric Company switched my mechanical analog meter to a “smart” electric utility meter without my knowledge. A number of weeks later, I became extremely ill and discovered that the company had switched out my meter. I contacted the electric company demanding that they remove the “smart” meter and return an analog meter. I was told by Central Hudson that the solar array would not work without a “smart” utility meter. After researching this, I discovered that solar arrays work perfectly well with analog meters but Central Hudson still refused to remove the “smart” meter. Since I was unable to live with the continuous pulsation of the smart meter I was left with the decision to either have to leave my home of 35 years or cut the electric line to the smart meter. I chose to cut the wire rather than be sickened in my home as I had no means to move. As a single woman in her 60’s, I was living without electricity for 9 months through the winter, using a wood cook stove and candles. I had to store food in a cooler and buy ice to keep it fresh. Finally I hired an electrician to disconnect my wiring to the “smart” meter & re-connect my home wiring to an analog meter which was on my barn. I was then able to use electricity in my home again. 5. However, having been injured by weeks of exposure to RF/MW pulsed radiation, many years later, I am still unable to go into buildings that are using smart meters or wifi. I cannot tolerate the radiation for more than a few minutes without becoming ill and must leave the area as I now have Eletromagnetic Radiation Syndrome, known as EMR Syndrome. This has made it difficult for me to travel as I cannot stay in hotels, motels or shop at stores where there is microwave radiation. As a professional musician, I am often hired to go into public buildings or play music for school shows. It is a frequent occurrence that today I can no longer spend much time in these buildings without my symptoms returning. I consider this a grave personal injury that has made my life much more difficult. 6. When I am exposed to RF/MW radiation, I experience severe pain and pressure in my head, especially in the forehead. I also feel tingling sensations on my skin as well as tightness in the chest, dizziness, nausea, difficulty concentrating and insomnia. I simply must leave the area as I feel sick around the microwave radiation. 7. Since I have been injured by “smart” meter radiation, I have become a member on the board of New York Safe Utility Meter Association, (NYSUMA). This organization has been working for years in the effort to legislate a safe utility meter choice to anyone who chooses to have returned, or to retain an analog utility meter. Analog utility meters have been used safely and successfully for many years. All utility companies should be required by law to provide analog meters to all consumers who choose to have them. Analog meters work perfectly well and are safe. No one should be forced to accept a device on their property that is a known health hazard. 8.

Hello Belgium speaking here I live in hell since 2016 My everyday life has become à deadly fight, more and more particularly since 2024. From headache to nausea, dizziness, body ache, high heartrate, lack of sleep, pain full tingling all over my body and MORE

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 family and an individual. As the infrastructure of cell towers increased within my city and neighborhood, my husband and I have been having ear ringing problems that affects our sleep, headaches, equilibrium, balance and overall health. We notice as a family when we are away from cell towers we do not hear the ringing and sleep better. Also, as a parent along with other parents in our community there is a high concern with the increased cell towers on schools and churches. https://live.childrenshealthdefense.org/chd-tv/shows/tea-time/brave-parents-standing-up-to-telecom-giants. The increased cell build out started in 2018 and now we can not drive down a street without seeing many EMR cells. Anxiety, suicide and neurological issues have increase noticeably in our community. Today in CA we are still fighting to keep cell towers off of school grounds. https://ehsciences.org/petaluma-city-schools-prohibits-new-cell-towers-on-school-district-property/ 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.

This FIRST PART of my submission contributes to the HHS document, "Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure: portion stating "identify research gaps and priority areas for future study," I have identified a mechanism of adaptation to RF exposure in living organisms which are genetically capable of making cholesterol inside their bodies (mammals, birds, and?) that I would describe as a "priority area for future study": HYPOTHESIS: Our bodies deposit extra cholesterol into our cell membranes to make them stiffer and more resistant to RF penetration. This works until cell membrane permeability is sufficiently impeded that nutrients cannot get into cells and wastes cannot get out of cells. At that point, the organism, i.e. person, "gets sick" with miserable symptoms, causes of which show on no medical diagnostic test. The syndrome is then pronounced "psychosomatic", psychoactive drugs are prescribed that only make the situation worse, the victim is abandoned, until death. METHODS: One way "science" could investigate this would be to biopsy skin of people with differing cumulative and ongoing RF exposures to compare differences in cellular cholesterol content between those with lowest exposure to those with highest exposures. The biggest problem I see with this, is finding people like me with low cumulative exposures. TREATMENT: As for reduction in cell membrane cholesterol content over time, the frequency 2770 Hz (using a positive offset square wave) appears to dissolve cholesterol. Soy bean lecithin in soy bean oil also dissolves cholesterol well; sunflower lecithin in sunflower oil seems to have a lesser effect. Dissolution OF cholesterol must be performed slowly because pathogens and toxins are likely to contaminate the cholesterol. Of course, if RF exposure remains high, the body will redeposit cholesterol into cell membranes as continuing defense. Duh. Of course, even if "science" would confirm this hypothesis, Big Telecom and the military would either ignore it, censor it, debunk it by pretending to duplicate it to deliberately fail from bad study design, or by discarding relevant data. LIMITATIONS: I do not think this phenomenon protects from electrical fields of sufficient intensity that overpower the electrical signals normally operative within a functioning organism. I do not think it protects from magnetic fields generated by flowing electrical current, particularly since our blood and tissues are filled with magnetizable iron and various paramagnetic minerals. It probably protects slightly from ionizing radiation, although retention of environmental lead surely protects more, until other well established systemic deleterious effects of lead neutralize the radioprotective effect. I developed this simple hypothesis using energy testing, largely rejected by modern "science", using a resonance testing method that previously eliminated all my allergies except one. It allows me to remove pathogens and toxic molecules, enabling me to do self care to the extent that I have rejected Medicare part B and D. Unfortunately, our modern system of progressing from ignorance to hypothesis to acceptance, demands many expensive double blind, case controlled studies of large groups of possibly affected individuals. Regrettably, this type of research is the only thing that might power change. Even then, human nature, especially of those with power, resists change, and at least one generation must pass before new ideas are possibly accepted. I believe the USA and other first world countries do not have that much time. As to "identify research gaps": RF effects on voltage gated calcium channels have already been researched by the work of Martin L. Pall, Professor Emeritus of Biochemistry at Washington State University and his predecessors. It is my understanding that this is considered "controversial". What else is new? Whether further research would change this is debatable. The entire wireless industry will continue to be responsible for publishing fake research debunking anything that shows RF and other electromagnetic fields to be anything other than perfectly safe. I have encountered two instances where removing LED lighting alleviated an individual's Parkinson's symptoms. This should be investigated. The SECOND PART of my submission, PERSONAL EFFECTS, is attached because this space is too small.

Thank you for allowing me to give input on electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure and human health. Numbers related to questions are provided. (2) I am an individual consumer. (3) I am a retired Navy Journalist. I served as a broadcast journalist and was stationed overseas in the 80’s and 90’s. I lived and worked next to broadcast satellite dishes, air stations, ship radar systems and worked with various other unique technologies throughout my career. I served as a Web Manager for an Army headquarter command for about a decade and was a huge fan of using and learning technology until suddenly, I could not tolerate exposure. (a, b, c) I am affected by radiofrequency (RF) radiation and pulse-modulated RF radiation. Cell phones, DECT phones, wearables or anything that I touch will cause an immediate reaction (burning, skin redness, pain, headache, high frequency sound, heart palpitations, dizziness, hair standing up on arms, impaired vision etc). A downward spiraling of symptoms will follow depending on strength of signal and amount of time exposed to include muscle pain, brain fog, insomnia, fatigue, weakness, and irritability. I can feel and must take action to move away from someone that is using a cell phone within 5 feet of me and I am affected at a slower and more generalized frequency and degree if I am in the vicinity of wireless frequencies (sitting in a doctor’s office, inside a store etc). It takes hours to recuperate depending on strength of signal and duration of exposure. It makes the most sense that I have long-term cumulative exposure but honestly, I do not know. (d) I suddenly became unable to tolerate even short-term exposures after an injury to my spine and nerves after a drunk driver hit me from behind while sitting at a red light in 2007. It took years to understand what was happening. I had irregular symptoms that doctors did not recognize and had never seen. In 2013, I attempted to follow the scientific method and added and took away each piece of technology in my home until it became clear that I needed to remove anything having to do with wireless technology (modem, laptop, DECT phone (horrible!) etc. (e) I met with neurologists, primary doctors, and therapists (mental and physical) looking for answers. In the early years, some suggested that I get mental counseling. Over the years, doctors became more open to believing me and ultimately attempted to protect me from exposure. Current Doctors agree that the science and human health studies have not caught up with the fast pace that society is introducing this technology. (f) I now have everything in my home hard-wired. There is no “treatment” that I am aware of. The only treatment that has worked for me is to limit exposure. This is challenging in today’s environment. I must remain aware of the equipment and devices that are around me (ipads, TV’s, appliances, security cameras, vehicles etc) as they put out their own signals. I live in a city, and they have built cell towers/added amplification to increase coverage while also increasing the strength of the signals that are being transmitted. All of these actions have been taken without proper studies of human health and what it is doing to the environment. I understand that both low and high frequencies can be harmful. If I could offer any advice for people, it would be to use “wired” versus “wireless” at every chance possible. Once the sensitivity sets in then life changes. (g) I spent years looking for peer reviewed science. It wasn’t until I found bioinitiative.org and the thousands of studies that it contains that I learned that I was not the only one suffering. I still have a voice and have created a safe environment at my home, but I know there are many children and seniors and disabled who cannot speak for themselves and may not even understand that exposure is actually worsening their symptoms.

This is my second attempt to submit comments. I tried multiple times to submit to no avail. I live in Anchorage, Alaska. My physical and mental health have been significantly impacted by the installation of the smart grid technology in Anchorage. The first "jolt," that plummeted me into electro-hyper-sensitivity was in 2018 when the smart meters were installed on the homes in our neighborhood. I was able to keep the electric company at bay but I was finally forced to have a meter installed on our home-- the consequence was disconnection from centralized electricity at the beginning of the Alaska winter. I have had a variety of symptoms for the last 8 years-- a constant feeling of being electrocuted/microwaved being the thing that never changes. Other symptoms are: high blood pressure, interrupted sleep, an "on-edge" nervous system, tingling in hands and feet, breast swelling, ringing in the ears. The quality of my life has become worse. I am 79 years old and am in otherwise good health. All of my symptoms relate to the constant bombardment of emf's coming from the smart meters (and through the home wiring creating dirty electricity) and the towers. I have found that I feel like my old self with none of these symptoms, when I get out of Anchorage and our of range of cell towers.

AI Recap - full version attached. Introduction Thank you to Health and Human Services for investigating how radiofrequency (RF) radiation affects life on Earth. I am submitting this as an individual severely impacted by all four types of electromagnetic fields (EMFs). Timeline of Symptoms & Diagnosis 2007: Developed severe Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) following an unidentified odor exposure in my former home. Experts noted that individuals with MCS frequently go on to develop Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EHS). 2008: Secured permanent remote work accommodations due to severe asthma triggered by workplace fragrances and photosensitivity to fluorescent office lighting. 2012: Maintained a stable environment with low-transmission Wi-Fi and a 3G smartphone. RF levels remained low (.05 V/m), and dirty electricity lines registered within acceptable parameters (35–50 GSU). This is the 1st year I received an accommodation to retain use of my older low-EMF workplace laptop which continued until 2018. 2016: Onset of full EHS triggered by the nationwide 4G rollout, stronger neighboring Wi-Fi networks, and switching to a 4G smartphone. Physical contact with the phone caused burning pain and head lesions. Discontinued home Wi-Fi and transitioned to a completely hardwired internet network. Readings on my Acoustimeter increased to .06-.35. I can now hear cell antenna transmissions sounds on my RF meter. The Graham Stetzer Line Meter readings are now 50-100 GSU. 2018: A water utility smart meter installation caused immediate, severe brain fog, heart palpitations, and anxiety. The meter was successfully removed, but the threat of forced re-installation remains a constant source of stress. August 2024: A severe regional storm knocked out utility power and local cell antennas for six days. During this outage, chronic EHS symptoms temporarily vanished, restoring cognitive clarity and relieving skin irritation. • Recent Medical History (2024–2026): Required an emergency room visit for heart attack-like symptoms, specialized steroid eye drops for severe EHS-related dry eye, and dental interventions for chronic jaw clenching caused by EMF-induced nighttime pain. 2026 Current Living Environment & Mitigations Environmental exposure has surged due to dense local cellular infrastructure (396 towers and 244 antennas within a 3-mile radius according to AntennaSearch) and powerful neighboring Wi-Fi mesh routers. Ambient RF readings now average .15 to 1.0 V/m, and dirty electricity spikes up to 500 GSU. To cope, I have implemented strict mitigation protocols: Shielding: Installed double layers of Swiss Shield Naturelle fabric on bedroom walls, though it cannot entirely block neighboring mesh routers or smart home devices. •Grid Isolation: Unplug major kitchen appliances when not in use. Manually shut off targeted electrical circuits at night to reduce ambient electric fields. Hardwired Device Infrastructure: Home Wi-Fi is entirely banned, and the incoming internet COAX cable is physically disconnected every night. Smart Device Isolation: My smartphone operates strictly via grounded Ethernet adapters with every internal wireless radio (RF, NFC, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 4G, and Location Services) completely disabled. Texts are drafted on airplane mode and transmitted rapidly during brief activation windows. Isolation & Daily Disruptions: I must spend the majority of my day inside specialized protective canopies. Standard social activities like going to the gym, dining out, or participating in recreational leagues are impossible. Routine chores require leaving the house for hours due to the massive dirty electricity fields produced by modern digital appliance displays. Symptoms - Exposure to active RF radiation or elevated dirty electricity consistently triggers: •Loud, persistent tinnitus •Burning, itchy skin and physical lesions •Severe headaches, intense head pressure, and dizzy spells •Chronic fatigue, sleep disturbances, and acute memory difficulties •Sharp, stabbing body pains, severe muscle tightening, and chest pain •Heart palpitations, systemic food sensitivities, and rapid full-body overheating Financial and Personal Impact Over $50,000 has been expended on specialized RF meters, structural shielding fabric, grounded adapters, professional building biology consultations, and extensive integrative or environmental medical care. Maintenance requires daily testing with an Acoustimeter because routine operating system updates (such as Windows 11) regularly override system configurations and silently reactivate hidden hardware radios via the UEFI BIOS. Conclusion True relief is achieved only through absolute EMF avoidance. I spend multiple days per week sitting in remote park areas where background RF is minimal, supplementing avoidance with earthing, magnesium foot soaks, and cold showers. I live in persistent anxiety regarding the ongoing deployment of modern utility and cellular infrastructure.

The dangers of EMFs are real. My father, as an example, began having strange complaints such as dizzyness, irritated skin and headaches. Upon inspection of his home with an EMF detector, we learned that a digital electric meter had been installed on his home without his consent, He had it removed and the symptoms disappeared. He has to pay an additional fee each month as a result. An additional concern that I want to express is that of directed energy weapons. With so many satellites above us, how are the people being protected from threats? Where are detection devices and alarms? There are so many WiFi towers (strangely set up while we were quarantined due to the Covid pandemic) that we are saturated with EMFs from satellites and towers. Many of the satellites are operated by people, under contract with the government, who have displayed unconstitutional and antisocial behaviors. There are numerous reports circulating on social media about people who have been treated for symptoms similar to Havana Syndrome. Direct energy weapons are said to be able to remotely directed at a target, animal or human, in order to stop a beating heart. Musk cryptically mentioned being asked by the “government” if he had the ability to hit a baby seal. Clearly, he was not suggesting that he could do so via one of his automobiles. Why is no one considering the military weapons these people have that can kill without detection? Marcus Lamb might be someone to look into as a potential victim. I have some personal experience regarding being affected by direct energy. To make a report in person, however, with no way to prove it would be detrimental to myself as I would be labeled mentally ill. The public is unable to defend ourselves. We need help from those who are supposed to be protecting us. Furthermore, linking every government database to AI has further put the public in danger. The AI billionaire leaders are now able to access government information easily. That decision was plainly stupid and a serious dereliction of the duty to serve and protect the people. Safety and security are being sacrificed for technology.

EMFs have been very harmful for my health. For years now, I have exhausted my sick time at work with illnesses that include but are not limited to severe muscle pain, headaches, brain fog, always feeling sick, tired, and dizziness etc. It does not help that I am a 30+ yr Targeted Individual. I believe that EMFs exacerbate the effects of DEWs. I also believe that EMFs are to blame for many other serious illnesses, including cancer, which was the cause of death of my late husband. He had two types of cancer. I further believe that advancement in technology can be a great thing. The problem is that not enough research has been done, along with the fact that in the past, the government has been ruled by the 'Deep State'. I believe that the new Administration can do better! GOD BLESS!!! 17
