Neurological symptoms & sleep

MY NEIGHBORS AND ANIMALS ARE DYING I am SICK. My family members have been SICK SINCE more than a hundred UNREGULATED TOWERS WENT LIVE over our community. This has been a challenge for me to get anyone to help in my community. I wanted to share my story in hopes of helping others. My story is one of many in Terrebonne Parish. After multiple (9) 300-foot 5G towers were put over our homes, four 300-foot 5G towers were put over my home and animal sanctuary, and four 300-foot towers were put over my office. At the same time, smart meters were put on my home, along with those of every other Entergy customer. I began getting sick, very sick. It began in my petting area with heart palpitations, headaches, vomiting, ringing in my ears, confusion, bleeding gums, insomnia, nightmares, dizziness, anxiety, ears buzzing 24 hours a day, severe fatigue, muscle weakness, and more. I have now been diagnosed with radiation syndrome / EHS (electromagnetic hypersensitivity syndrome) caused by extreme exposure to radiation. Many residents are experiencing similar symptoms. Countless children are now suffering. Being a very healthy person my whole life, this has been a life-changing situation. I am usually the one helping others; now I need your help. I never thought this could happen until I was forced to face it by becoming sick. I'm not sure where this illness will take me. However, I must do all I can to protect my family and my community. Seven neighbors on my street and friends have died after the towers went live over their homes. Many other residents are also sick. My community is surrounded by towers that have no regulatory testing information, nor does our planning department ask for it, citing the FCC's outdated RF radiation guidelines. I became certified in RF radiation testing. I now test the towers and smart meters. I can confirm that the EMF (electromagnetic frequency) / RF (radio frequency) radiation being emitted is extreme for every single product, tower, and smart device I have tested. It has been a fight to protect my family, my community, and myself, with EVERYONE CITING THE FCC'S OUTDATED RF RADIATION GUIDELINES. I had to learn all I could about this to protect my health and theirs. I've had to turn my home, where I have lived for 28 years, into an EMF-safe house (until I sell it), as well as my barn, which is surrounded by EMF material and protection. My bed is covered with EMF protection as well due to the radiation levels in my home. I now have to wear protective clothing all day. Leaving my safe area means becoming exposed due to the unbridled towers around me. I am a very private person. This is not easy to share, but if I do not ask for help now, many more innocent people will be sick, or they will die like my neighbors, my friends, and my animals. Since the towers went live, six of my horses have died instantly under the towers. All of my little animals have died. My 200-pound tortoises started going blind. I'm not sure where the daily radiation exposure will take me, so I thought now is the best time to ask for your help in making a change. THE FCC MUST REGULATE THE RADIATION, OR THE DEATH & DESTRUCTION WILL NEVER END. Technology is safe only if it is REGULATED. Always, Shari Champagne

thank you for this open consultation to all and I would be happy if my testimony could help disabled people like me. My profession was computer science and I became disabled (recognized by the MDPH, a French organization for the recognition of disabilities) following a permanent exposure to excessive radiation: I lived 35 m from a relay antenna (2g, 3g, 4g+) and the office WI-FI box was placed on my work table. I was also surrounded by all kinds of electronic and computer equipment. I spent a lot of time on the phone as part of my duties. I suffered a lot in my body for 2 years without understanding why until a doctor understood that my neurological, cardiac and hormonal problems were induced by the radiation around me. As soon as I went into a white zone, I was better after a while. I had to radically change my life: moving to a gray area, unable to work even with an adaptation of the workstation (disability declared by social security) and social life reduced to nothing because repeated exposure to the waves hurts me. scientific publications on the subject: Hu, C., Zuo, H., & Li, Y.

L.S., I am an entrepeneur who sells bedding-products and apparel that protect people against the adverse effects of EMF's. These products have a protective component in them which is peat-fiber. See: www.gaiaheartworkz.com. The issues related to EMF exposure fall in the category of DEFCON 1. The point with EMF's is is that they kill Life. We all know of the bag of frozen blood that was put in the microwave and given to the patient who then died. We can handle some EMF's, but from 4G and onwards it starts to result in symptoms of harmful exposure such as feeling “being thrown off your rockers”, feeling disconnected from Life and Life-Forces, of your soul and spirit, from your sense of being part of the spiritual world, from your inspiration, your intuition. It can get you into a state of being locked up in your physicality’s, in your intellect, in depressed thoughts, negative emotions, in fear, in being anti-social, in your instincts. Since EMF’s consist of cold energy they can thus even result in cancer (known to be a cold illness). Since we have electrical currents in our body as well, the EMF's merge with those and subsequently amplify our currents to an unnatural and harmful level. One can feel this amplified exposure e.g. the top of our head, our temple, the middle-front of our forehead and the Atlas-point in the lower back-part of our skull. Our ears get affected by the EMF’s and you can hear it by a continuous buzzing high pitch monotonous ringing crinckling sound. People can experience it as having a hard time falling asleep (wheels keep spinning) and feel like they have a feever, but are not actually sick. The result is that you can't function anymore as a healthy human being. Since there has been no actual thorough research done on these affects, this avalanche of EMF exposure should thus be seriously scaled back. If you need more information feel free to contact me on: shop@gaiaheartworkz.com.

I have had someone or something speaking in my left ear mostly since November 23 1983 around 3:30 pm . Since then I've had several other things start happening and it has only progressively gotten worse. I've had my feet constantly low and slowly burned . I've had what I believe to be a laser enter into my body and cause health issues . I've been hit so hard with extremely low unhealthy frequencies that have caused me to have breathing issues . I have a list of issues caused by what has been said to be a directed energy weapon non-stop for years now along with the fact they have messed with my central nervous system and used subliminal messages to the point of them changing my word , even actions . This is DARPA known and now listed under space force as it is considered nuclear energy weapon . It's some of tue very same type of military weapons used in Venezuela . It is a no touch torture and it's been happening to me for decades . I've been told that it's because someone had me put onto a watchlist for terrorism of which I've never done nor even had the time or desire to do . When it started I was a young single mother of 2 elementary age school children and a full time job . I'd no time to even think about a plot against anyone and I was a good person who wasn't that kind of human . This needs STOPPED and I'm not nor have I ever been crazy . Make this end as I do not want to die on a program I rightfully should never been on .

& 2. an individual 3a. Type of wireless or RF/EMF sources involved (e.g., mobile phones, Wi-Fi, smart meters…)Mobile phones, wi-fi routers, smart meters, cell towers, cordless telephones 3b. Nature, duration, frequency, and approximate timing (e.g., years):22 years 3c. Adverse health effect(s) experienced:Headaches, insomnia, pain in brain, irritability, fatigue, brain fog, concentration, personality/mood, general "happiness" disappears, depression or anxiety like symptoms. 3d. Time from first exposure to first appearance of adverse health effects; and did a change in exposure coincide with the onset of adverse effects:Adverse affects with each exposure to close proximety to cell tower. Then wi-fi, cell phones, cordless phones, computers and routers. Basically anything with radio frequency. The effects are immefiate sometimes. Other times, the effects are cumulative and symptoms increase gradually over time, such as over two hours. 3e. Was medical evaluation or treatment sought? (Optionally:) Was there a diagnosis?I did seek medical treatment with the cell tower exposure, but at the time I did not know it was the cell tower causing severe symptoms. Doctor just "trialed" thyroid medication due to fatigue. However the blood tests did not show thyroid dysfunction. 3f. Were steps taken to reduce or eliminate exposure, and were there subsequent changes in the effects?Yes and symptoms resolved. 3g. Any supporting documentation? This includes Scientific Reports, exposure measurements, or other relevant information:I have Scientic Reports that also support the ill health affects of RF. I have dozens of reports from specialists. Additional Details you would like to share about your experiences of adverse health effects you believe to be associated with exposure to wireless radiation or EMF's:My life has been profoundly negatively affected by radio frequency radiation (RF). I have been disabled by it. I can no longer comfortably stay in hotels, travel, or stay with friends who will not turn off wi-fi or cell phones. B1a. Sources you experience as causing you Adverse Effects:Wi-fi, cell phones/towers, smart meters, anything "smart" or TV's, tv antaennas. I notice combining several devices cause symptoms to be worse. B1b. Sources you can sense, but don't seem to harm you:Dirty electricity (DE) more than RF, but it does harm me the same as RF radiation. However, this is easier to mitigate with a Stetzer filter that brings significant relief. B1c. Sources you can use without sensing or being harmed:Landline phones, all electric devices that use simple electricity and are not "electronics". These include things like mixers, toasters made before "energy efficiency". B1d. Sources that seem to provide benefit (i.e., electrotherapy):Stetzer filters for DE, unplugging devices. An area of investigation is "How poor underground electric power grid lines can affect sensitivity to radio frequency radiation". I was exposed to improperly grounded and under-sized power lines and bad transformers. This increased symptoms to RF. After the power lines and transformers were replaced and grounded, my RF symptoms were dramatically reduced. Not gone, but 80% better!!! LiFE CHANGING!! Bad power lines produce massive RF and/or dirty electricity. B2a. Health conditions you think may contribute to your sensitivity to EMFs including wireless:Insomnia, chronic fatigue, mood disorder, cognitive impairments, brain fog, irritability. B2b. Health conditions you don't necessarily associate with your sensitivity to EMFs including wireless, but might be relevant:ME/CFS, mold exposure, heavy metal levels, viral loads B3. For each subquestion please list up to 5 drugs or therapies or home remedies (if any) B3a. That you recommend, as they helped you tolerate or recover from EMF exposure:Correcting underground (or overhead) utility power lines to be properly sized and properly grounded is IMPERATIVE if this is an issue in your residence. Ensure there are absolutely no voltage in the earth around your home. You cannot depend on the power company to measure this. Hiring contractor specializing in EMF. Use Stetzer filters for DE. Shield wi-fi routers and smart meters. Phone in airplane mode. B3b. That you recommend, but you’re not positive that they help:Hrmonizers. B3c. That helped you but you don’t recommend. (e.g., the benefit did not last long or the side effects were too harmful):Supplements. B3d. Treatments that had no effect:Electro-therapy, ultrasound, electric sauna, anything electrically therapeutic. B3e. Treatments that made your sensitivity worse:65-74 B4. What is your age range?65-74 B5. What year did you become aware of your sensitivity to wireless radiation or electromagnetic fields?2006 B6. What country, state, province, or major city were you living in when you first noticed your sensitivity to wireless or electromagnetic fields?Washington DC, Indiana

Question 2: I am responding as an individual consumer, a mother, and a member of a household where both adults work from home. I am not a scientist or medical professional. My comments are based on my own experience. My husband has submitted a separate response describing his own experience and measurements. Question 3: From 2022 to 2024 we lived about 400 metres from a mobile phone base station that carried 5G. My husband’s meter readings outdoors facing the mast were much higher than at our current home. Our house also had a lot of wireless technology, including Wi-Fi, several smart speakers, and wireless smart lights, switches and sensors. I worked from home, using my mobile phone regularly, with my desk beside our Wi-Fi router for most of the working day. While living there I had two miscarriages. I also developed tinnitus, anxiety, pressure in my head and difficulty sleeping. When we became aware of possible risks, we removed all the wireless devices from the house after both miscarriages, and in late 2024 we moved to a home further from base stations, where we do not use Wi-Fi and indoor readings are very low. My symptoms went away completely after the move. We conceived without difficulty and I have had a successful pregnancy. In late 2025 my symptoms returned. Only afterwards did we notice that a nearby base station had been rebuilt taller, with six new antennas; the operator has since confirmed the site runs 5G. By late 2026 my symptoms had become unbearable. We now sleep inside a shielding canopy over the bed, and we have fitted shielding to our windows. I understand that miscarriage is common and has many causes, and that other things in our lives changed when we moved. I am not claiming that wireless exposure caused my losses or my symptoms, and I know my observations are not blinded. Some research exists on exposure in pregnancy, including mobile phone use and living near base stations. That gap is why I am writing. Question 11: Pregnant women and unborn children should be a priority population in research and exposure guidance. Simple advice, such as keeping routers away from where people sit for long periods and limiting wireless devices in the home, costs nothing and could be given now. Question 16: I would like independent, publicly funded research into reproductive outcomes, including miscarriage and fertility, in relation to everyday combined exposure at home and at work, using measured exposure rather than estimates based on phone use. Question 18: I am concerned about how quickly new wireless technologies are being installed outdoors and inside buildings, including Wi-Fi throughout schools, where children spend most of their day and have no choice about their exposure. Reviews commissioned by the World Health Organization found very little research on long-term exposure and cognition in children, and one Swiss study of adolescents found an association between mobile phone exposure to the head and poorer memory development, which the authors say needs confirming. I recommend that new technologies and frequency bands are independently assessed for health effects before widespread rollout, and that schools follow France’s approach since 2015: no Wi-Fi in spaces for children under three, Wi-Fi switched off in primary schools when not needed for teaching, and parents told before new wireless equipment is installed. All information in this response is from my own experience and is not peer-reviewed research.

Dear Department of Health and Human Services: Thank you for listening to the concerns people have about wireless technology. I began suffering from EMR (electromagnetic radiation) Syndrome about 25 years ago. The chronic symptoms I have struggled with over the years include tinnitus, head and facial pain, head fogginess/dizziness, eye and vision problems, nosebleeds. My doctor and I spent years trying to determine the cause of my symptoms. I saw various specialists including an ENT doctor and at least three different neurologists. I had a CT scan and two brain MRIs. I had no success with any of the prescribed treatments, and none of my health care providers could figure out what was going on. Finally, about 10 years ago, I stopped using a cordless phone and took other steps to reduce my RFR (radiofrequency radiation) exposure. In doing so, I experienced a dramatic reduction in my symptoms. The general public needs to be aware that wireless radiation is harmful to human health. I have lost three jobs in the last nine years because my employers refused to provide a safe working environment. In the most recent incident, a WiFi router was located near my desk and I asked for permission to move the router at least 15 feet away. My boss refused to accommodate my request. When I told her that my doctor had advised me not to sit in such close proximity to the router, she terminated my employment. In the United States, we, the public, are not adequately protected by our safety standards. Thousands of peer-reviewed scientific studies, accumulated over decades, report biological effects from exposure to non-thermal, non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation (the kind emitted by cell towers, smart meters, WiFi routers, cell phones, Bluetooth devices, etc.). Our safety regulations do not to consider the bioeffects of wireless radiation at non-thermal levels. Nor do they consider the cumulative effects of long-term exposure over a period of years. The regulations consider only short-term exposure from a single source. They fail to consider exposure from multiple simultaneous sources, such as occurs when you, for example, use a cell phone or tablet near a smart meter in a location covered by multiple WiFi networks. One thing we know about wireless radiation is that, among the many effects seen, a very serious one is the deterioration of the genome (genotoxicity).  Such an effect, if seen in a food item under development or in a potential pharmaceutical drug, would immediately completely ban the product from future marketing and sale. The wireless revolution began more than 25 years ago, and the damage done so far is incalculable. The scientific and medical evidence is clear. Our government agencies need to protect the public from wireless harm, and they need to act now. Please take the time to consider the study conducted by James C. Lin titled “Health and safety practices and policies concerning human exposure to RF/microwave radiation.” https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/public-health/articles/10.3389/fpubh.2025.1619781/full

Triple board certified physician here including in Brain Injury. It's simple. EMF changes biological signaling in a detrimental way, even at levels FAR below thermal effects. It is no less than a neurotoxin that our government has failed to protect us from. Change that. For one of a thousand studies on this topic, see Int J Radiat Biol. 2026;102(4):421-434. doi: 10.1080/09553002.2026.2617592. Neurotoxic effects of 3.5 GHz GSM-like RF exposure on cultured DRG neurons: a mechanistic insight into oxidative and apoptotic pathways.

The radiation from wireless devices and my smart meter makes have migraines and headaches. There are many others who have the same symptoms and it causes anxiety and distress may even potential cause cancer with long term use…please consider the voice of the people being harmed.
