The commenter reports electrosensitivity after smart-meter installation and multiple symptoms following n…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
1. & 2. I am responding as: an individual 3a. Type of wireless (e.g., mobile phones, Wi-Fi, smart meters…)5G+ WIRING/JUNCTION BOXES 3b. Nature, duration, frequency, and approximate timing (e.g., years): CONSTANT. 3c. Adverse health effect(s) experienced:Low blood oxygen, severe thyroid disruption (incl. heart thrumming, weight gain), insulin resistance & blood sugar issues, low grade skin cancers, brain fog, constant need to sleep but sleep is interrupted, immune system breakdown causing delayed healing, musculoskeletal disorders, thinning hair, gaunt face and accelerated aging. 3d. Time from first exposure to first appearance of health effects; and did a change in exposure coincide with the onset of adverse effects:Within 90 days after installation and activation in my neighborhood. 3e. Was medical evaluation or treatment sought? (Optionally:) Was there a diagnosis?No. It would be pointless and there are no available licensed NC physicians who can comprehend this level/type of physics, and most are terrified of completing and documentation about the effects of electrosensitivity. 3f. Were steps taken to reduce or eliminate exposure? I tried to stop the installation of 5G+ by informing the County Commissioners of the dangers from 2021 - 2023. They ignored me. I cannot reduce or eliminate my exposure. I wear two pendants: an Essential Energy Life Plate ($350) and a Biogeometry pendant ($180.00). I have Biogeometry plates in my vehicle. I have installed tensor technology on my property where possible. 3g. Any supporting documentation?: I have done some random power measurements with my SafeLivingTechnologies.com training meter. The ambient power measurements in my area used to be 4-5 microWatts/sqm within the "Safe" range. Now, it is 60,000 microWatts/sqm... which is into Bau Biologie's Extreme Concern levels where cellular destruction commences along with carcinogenicity. Additional Details: This form is inadequate. We are being impacted by EMR (EMF is a misleading term. Frequencies can be good.) - Electro Magnetic Radiation from MANY sources we do NOT control at this time. I was made electrosensitive by Florida Power and Light's installation of Smart Meters on the 4-plex where I lived without any notification. For 2 years, I was pounded by 13,000 pulses a day from four meters. Fort Myers, FL experienced the forced installation of 5G masts there caused VISIBLE accelerated aging. I only know that because I was gone for most of year. My friends had visibly aged 3-5 years. Gray hair went white, and everyone's faces stressed looking. Public facing jobs endure the worst of the C19 injection bio-synthetic nano-tech shedding, and all-source EMR. The cumulative effect was devastating for them. B1a. Sources - Adverse Effects: 5G+ grid, Smart grid, Cell towers, LED lights, Other Peoples "dumb" phones. B1b. Sources you can sense w/o harm: None. B1c. Sources that don't harm: None. B1d. Sources that provide benefit: Online healing frequency recordings found on youtube. These frequencies are from PC speakers. They are simply audible frequencies. B2a. Health conditions contributing to your sensitivity: Low blood oxygen, thyroid disruption (incl. heart thrumming, weight gain), insulin resistance & blood sugar issues, low grade skin cancers, brain fog, constant need to sleep and sleep interruption, immune system bkdown: delayed healing, musculoskeletal disorders, thinning hair, gaunt face and accelerated aging. B2b. Health conditions you don't associate with EMR: None. I was in great shape before FPL installed the smart grid without notice in Fort Myers, FL in 2012. B3. Please list up to 5 drugs or therapies or home remedies (if any) B3a. That you recommend: I wear two pendants: an Essential Energy Life Plate ($350) and a Biogeometry pendant ($180.00). I have Biogeometry plates in my vehicle. I have installed tensor technology on my property where possible. Online healing frequency recordings found on youtube. These frequencies come from my PC speakers. There is no EMR behind them. They are simply audible frequencies. I use nutraceuticals, supplements and detox methods to reduce or eliminate the nanotech from the everpresent tropospheric aerosolization with metals and toxins, and the C19 injected and contaminated people. The nano-tech ramps up reactivity with EMR (Electro Magnetic Radiation), so getting rid of it helps a LOT. B3b. You recommend, but you’re not positive that they help: If something I try doesn't increase my energy, speed my healing and provide immune support, I don't do it anymore. B3c. That helped you but you don’t recommend. (e.g., the benefit did not last long or the side effects were too harmful):None. B3d. Treatments that had no effect: None. B3e. Treatments that made your sensitivity worse: None. B4. What is your age range? 65-74 B5. What year did sensitivitystart? 2014 B6. What country, state, province, or major city were you living in when you first noticed ? Fort Myers, Florida

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
When I was 12 my whole life got turned upside down due to EMF. I couldn't do normal things, was ostracized from my peers, teachers, and classmates. I got nosebleeds, stabbing headaches, memory loss, nausea, restless legs, pain, extreme whole-body inflammation, my eyes couldn't focus, and insane fatigue. Everyone around me thought I was crazy or making it up.  But then I was 15 and had to write a research paper on something, I chose to write on EMF. I got paid to have my 15-page research paper published by a company in the United Kingdom that I wrote my freshman year. A classmate who thought I was making it up mocked me for doing that, and later didn't have enough research to back up his paper. I had so much scientific published research on EMF I actually had to take out over 6 pages of my paper. The research was astounding and other countries know and acknowledge the harms of EMF. They protect children. They don't allow cell towers within 2 miles of schools, they have research on the effects of non-ionizing radiation.  My pain from EMF got to such a degree that it felt like in addition to having headaches that felt like someone was stabbing me in the head and I couldn't breathe. Once we started turning off our Wi-Fi at night I was finally able to sleep, and some of the pain went away. The shift was drastic. I am happy to say that a few years later I've recovered and am a lot less sensitive, but that's only thanks to the research I did when I was younger, and to my parents work to protect me and help me heal from the damage.  We should not allow the cell phone companies profiting from these to set the safety standards. That's unethical and we're putting profit over health here in the US. If any third party did the research we would know ad see that we're insanely exceeding the safe amount of radiation a human can tolerate. But instead we are letting the cell phone tower companies tell us what is safe, and we're allowing this to be an unregulated industry.  My teenage years were dictated by EMF and my symptoms. I couldn't go to things I wanted to, hang out with friends, have people over unless they turned their phones off, or be in normalcy in society due to the extreme negative health effects I experienced from EMF and RF.  I have done extensive research on EMF, please read my paper below that was published in the UK. Let's do better for our country and our children - because I was the one who wasn't protected.  https://www.electricsense.com/emf-silent-killer/

A wellness practitioner describes neurological symptoms and substantial work, financial, and social losse…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
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 wellness consultant, safe-tech and environmental advocate who feels the effects of ElectroSmog. I first learned about the health hazards of EMF in functional neurology class. We turned our wifi off that night and both of us slept amazing and woke up feeling so much better. That was ten years ago. Since then I have had times of completely being unable to work, the right side of my face drooping and the right side of my body not working the same as the left when over exposed. It sidelined my NYC music career, derailed my relationships with family as no one believes in health effects because the gov't says it's safe, I cannot work in most environments and it has severely limited my finances. The personal financial and emotional losses if calculated using forensic accounting are devastating. MY SYMPTOMS IMMEDIATELY RESOLVE UPON LOW EMF ENVIRONMENT and immediately return in cell service areas and wifi routers. I have trouble swallowing from the tightening of the neck muscles, brain encephalopathy pinching cranial nerves and over activating the limbic system that dysregulates my body so much I've been diagnosed with dystonia and dysautonomia. X-rays show developing scoliosis from a complete dystonic twist from attempting to live and work to survive in this environment. It's INSANITY! As a wellness practitioner, I see many people who also complain of symptomology in wireless exposure as well. And in my 18 years as an Osteopathic Movement Therapist and Personal Trainer I am seeing these twists, tensions, and symptoms in many people. In fact, myself, colleagues and teachers keep talking of how we seldom see a normal brain, nervous system and body of any client anymore. The biggest change to our environment is ELECTROSMOG. Our advocacy groups already won a landmark lawsuit for the people due to extensive evidence of harm from ElectroSmog and the FCC shows flagrant disregard for humanity. This issue must continue to be addressed with holding FCC accountable, rescinding the 1996 Telecom Act and zero liability for Big Wireless, allowing opt outs, mandatory wifi on/off switches on routers, ensuring routers do not have secret frequencies, cell phone wireless hygiene options, educational campaigns and informed consent for the public, warning labels on all wireless tech devices, mandatory FCC commercials to explain the health risks of using wireless as was done with smoking, white zones that are protected zero EMF areas in every state/province/region of every country and research and development to pick up where the Tesla Society left off with using healthier frequencies/pulsation/modulation options for providers and also R&D for quantum computing. We are bioelectric beings, our heart is electric, our brain is electric, every cell communicates with electromagnetic impulses, we have to keep our electrolytes balanced... these electromagnetic frequencies go through walls AND our bodies.... there are gov't studies dating back to the 1930s showing wireless communications undermine every system in the human body and also have environmental effects. For the future and survival of all life on this planet, we need to make sweeping changes. WE ALREADY KNOW THE DISASTROUS HEALTH HAZARDS from ElectroSmog, NOW LET'S MOVE ON IT! 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.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
We have noticed an increase in sleeplessness, pain, skin, irritation, headaches, fatigue, and nausea. We live in Central New York and we have numerous cell towers around us. We have noticed this uptake in pain and problems since 2021. We do believe that it is being caused by the cell towers and 5G. We lived in a different area several years ago in a city and never had these sort of problems till we move to this area. We definitely believe our area needs to be investigated for over exposure of EMF or RF. We have minimal electronic devices in our home. And we feel there are no safety measures for people like us. We are basically being exposed to the EMF and 5G without consent and without any investigation being done. I have spoke to several of the neighbors around me, and they all have similar symptoms, especially the sleeplessness. None of us can sleep a full night in our neighborhood. We would openly welcome investigation conducted in this neighborhood where we live, and willing to share more information with our government. But we do believe we are being made ill by the EMF and the 5G. Doctors don’t seem to have any answers for our health problems nor do they offer any solutions. This is not an isolated situation. I have other family members that live in other places near cell towers also expressing the same issues of pain and health problems. Something needs to be done about this issue it is serious enough that it’s almost debilitating

The commenter reports headaches near phones and earbuds and rapid severe headaches while sitting in an el…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I am submitting this comment as an individual consumer (Question 2). My comments are based on my own direct, repeated experience with everyday wireless devices and an electric vehicle. In response to Question 3, I want to describe what I have experienced. I have used both iPhone and Samsung smartphones, along with Apple AirPods, on the AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile networks. I use my phone an average of 10 hours a day, which means my exposure is long, daily, and ongoing. I experience headaches, and they consistently come on after I have been close to electronic devices. This has happened across different phone brands and different carriers, which tells me the issue is not limited to a single product or network. My experience with my electric vehicle has been more severe. I own a 2025 Jeep Wagoneer Launch Edition and charge it using both Level 2 and Level 3 (DC fast) charging, including at EVgo charging stations. When I sit inside the car while it is charging, I get a severe headache within 3 to 5 minutes. The speed and consistency of this reaction is significant. Many drivers stay in their vehicles while charging, especially at public fast-charging stations, yet no one has told me whether doing so is safe. Regarding Question 5 and Question 9, I urge HHS to require clear, accessible disclosure of exposure information for consumers. For phones and wireless earbuds, this should include SAR values and the exact distance from the body at which each device was tested. Phones are carried against the body and earbuds are worn inside the ear for hours, so testing at a distance does not reflect how these products are actually used. For electric vehicles, manufacturers and charging providers should disclose the magnetic and electric field levels inside the cabin during Level 2 and DC fast charging, and should state plainly whether occupants should remain in the vehicle while it charges. Today, this information is either difficult to find or not provided at all. Regarding Question 10, there is currently no simple way for a consumer like me to report symptoms connected to wireless devices or EV charging. I ask HHS to create a public adverse event reporting system for RF/EMF exposure, so that patterns across many individuals can be identified and studied rather than dismissed one case at a time. Regarding Question 13 (wearable technologies and vehicles) and Question 16, I ask HHS to make the following research priorities: exposure from wearable devices worn in or on the head, such as wireless earbuds; cumulative exposure from using multiple wireless devices for many hours each day; and exposure inside electric vehicles during charging, particularly DC fast charging, when occupants sit close to high-power electrical systems in an enclosed space. I also ask that EV charging be studied under real-world conditions, including measurements taken at the seating positions where drivers and passengers actually sit. I respectfully ask HHS to take reports like mine seriously, to close these gaps in testing and disclosure, and to give the public the information it needs to make informed decisions. Thank you for the opportunity to submit this comment.

The commenter reports cognitive difficulties, fatigue, and reduced ability to work after nearby 5G transm…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
My brain became “unhinged” when 5G transmitters were placed on phone poles right in front of my house. One is about 50’ away, one less than 100’ away (not sure why; no other phone poles have them so close together). I was born with a pretty good brain – I graduated from Harvard at the top of my class! (junior year Phi Beta Kappa, class of ’73). No signs of dementia before this. When the transmitters were installed, I developed brain fog, memory loss, deep fatigue, irritability / anger outbursts, inability to think clearly. I work at a home office, and I have been almost completely unable to work since then. I have acquired some EMF protective gear which has helped to some extent. I also have a Safe & Sound meter to measure EMF levels; it has a green light to indicate a safe zone, a yellow light to indicate acceptable levels, an orange light for problem levels, red for danger; and a blinking red light indicates 10 times the danger level; mine blinks much faster, indicating 100 times the danger level. On EMFradar.com, the EMF exposure at my street address is listed - on a scale of 1 to 100 – at a 100. I work in health care and I like to think that my life is dedicated to serving the health of others. Please help to protect me so I can continue to be of service!

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I am commenting as a concerned public citizen. Wireless radiation exposure and EMF's, although invisible, just like carbon monoxide, are very harmful. It's common sense that humans, as electrical beings, would be affected. Personally, I have done what I can to shield myself, and am considering more measures. I have Ethernet connections for my laptop and my phone, and shielding paint on one wall because my roommate has WiFi in her room. Since taking these steps I have experienced far less headaches. Also, it has already been demonstrated that cell towers near schools negatively affect young brains. I appreciate that HHS is considering this issue, and I support any actions that can be taken to identify gaps in understanding these dangers and establish appropriate research priorities to protect human health, and especially children's health.

The commenter attributes lifelong seizures and other symptoms to RF and electrical exposures and reports …

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I've suffered from Seizures almost all my life, and its stolen near everything from me, agitated by EMFs and RFs and Dirty Electricity. It wasn't until I was 28 after seeing world renown specialist from across the globe that I on my own tried EMF reduction tactics like filtering powerlines, shielding wireless, using grounded devices and hardline connections that I recovered enough to walk and have my eyesight repair, migraines that never ended recovered. I'm the canary in the coal mine growing up in southern CA and later near Scilicon valley since my pre-teen years of age in the late 90s into the 00s. We'll all suffer more and more as signals add up and pollute each other. We need to use software on wireless that puts the device when not in use like the JSR-eco Router, saving our cyber security and electricity as well as our bodies. Education in this field will spur on not only engineering but biological intelligence in the coming generations too, demystifying this technology through its physical and biological interactions. It took almost a decade to repair my lifetime of nerve damage to the extent I have which isn't total, but 7 seizures a week is much more than now 2-3 a year. I remained HYPER sensitive to foods and wireless radiation swelling and having radical inflammation so great I can have a seizure or not process food the next few days, small scale seizures for a few days that burn and hurt and make it dangerous just to stand and go to the bathroom are then common after being on a train or near a cell tower too long. Please consider Xemes coating on the towers that exist and angle them up away from residential zones, school, hospital, ect. just like radio and airplane tower signals are supposed to be. I have an IQ tested by Sandford of 138-147 and studed neurology and computer science, I was an olympic level swimmer too, now i'm and unemployed cripple and try everywhere I go to help those I see with mounting symptoms and they're getting worse. Powerlines aren't being well maintained and conduict standards are being lowered to pvc instead of steel, most houses I've lived in I've called power companies and they find the power pole to not even have a grounding wire in the conduit tube it having rotted away long ago. The telecom companies would jump at a chance to market "a radiation safe company" if you set standards like the organic food crazy, try using that on them. Titanium with Vanadium should be used on and with cases for wireless like routers/modems, and reinvesting in this with our new steel systems would be a great boon in modernizing tech while creating potent economic opportunitiesa, longer lasting too. Please do what you can, the pain is never ending. God Bless

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
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 have experienced health problems from wireless radiation exposure. I first experienced problems when cell phones came out, years ago. I had dizziness and feelings of pressure in my head. I thought it was just the phone originally. As more wireless became available in computers and streaming TV, I realized I was continuing to have problems with the head pressure and dizziness. I do not think we know all the dangers associated with these technologies and that the government should do much more research before allowing them. I think children can be especially affected since their bodies are still developing. I support HHS in studying this issue more carefully. Please give particular attention to the research of scientists and any gaps in research. I appreciate your willingness to hear comments from the public.
