Neurological symptoms & sleep

My son was not sleeping well in his room. I was looking into radiation and called Duke and had them come out to remove our smart meter that was outside of his bedroom. It costed me $100 for them to remove it but ever since then he has slept better. Same with my husband and I’s cell phones. Airplane mode every night. WiFi turned off every night to help everyone sleep better.

I struggle with headaches anytime I'm doing anything on technology. Bloodwork confirmed that I am very sensitive to EMFs.

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 parent, and family member. I have personally been affected by wireless radiation such as the LED light bulbs that all have RF as states in the fine print on the package. LED light bulbs pulsate constantly and it regularly gives me headaches and my eye regularly ache. Also, I remember in all of the years prior to LED light bulbs being created I rarely had headaches or eye aches. I have had a similar experience with the smart meter that was put on our home. Prior to smart metera, I rarely had headaches, byt after it was installed without our consent, I experience more frequent headaches and I also notice that I get very high pitched tones in my ears regularly. I have tried different things to hope that it goes away such as trying to shut down the wifi at night during sleep, but the high pitched tones are not as strong but they continue. I would love to be able to buy incandescent full spectrum light bulbs again, and I would love to have our smart meter removed. 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.

I have suffered for the last 6 years with EMF sensitivity after being hit by dirty electricity from my smart meter that I cannot opt out of. That set in motion my sensitivity to wireless and cell towers. I cannot even go to most restaurants now because of all the streaming on tv's and the bluetooth. I cannot set in most cars due to the bluetooth. It has damaged my brain and memory. Please bring safety into our electrical and wireless world. This is not healthy especially for children. FCC and EPA do your job to protect the people.

My dad got cancer after a smart meter was installed on their house, on the bedroom wall, and my mom experiences symptoms as well since then. When I am near cell towers or am exposed to any EMF radiation, I experience severe headaches, which always eventually resolve once I create distance. My hands ache when my Bluetooth is on while I’m holding my phone, and I experience anxiety and headaches when Bluetooth is on in the car. I experience horrible sleep when our WiFi router is kept on, and even if that’s off, my sleep is disrupted if a phone is charging in the bedroom. My plants die if they are placed near the WiFi router, and since we have moved into a rental near a 5G tower, our sleep and health has been severely disrupted.

Since living near a few cell towers I have experienced chronic Migraines and feeling of fatigue.

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 parent and a caregiver. When we moved into our home in 2022, I started experiencing fatigue and brain fog like nothing I've ever experienced before, even as a mother with 5 children in 10 years, even through graduate school, even through running a business; this was different. I couldn't get dinner on the table. I couldn't organize basic tasks that needed to get done throughout the day. My oldest child started getting bloody noses, with no prior history. We both started getting headaches with no discernible cause (and her, no prior history). My memory was shot. Multiple times per day, I would send a child on a task, and then less than a minute later, forget I had done so. I struggled to get through our homeschooled lessons (and remember the above; I am highly educated, and this shouldn't have been an issue). I also started hearing a constant ringing in my ears, even though I have never had a problem with tinnitus. It was only then that we discovered the smart meter on our home. We removed it and replaced it with an electro-mechanical analog meter. Within a week, everyone was sleeping better (and with five children, this was a marked difference that I didn't expect), my husband - who had no reported problems to me - told me he was dreaming again. The headaches and bloody noses stopped. I felt like myself again with energy and focus. I was "conquering the world" again, so to speak. The utility company went through a multi-month process of lies, fear tactics, intimidation, threats and coercion before unlawfully removing our meter and replacing it with their opt-out meter. My tinnitus is back, and my thyroid is now shot with no other cause that can be identified. I have had it tested by an electrical engineer, and can confirm it still emits RF. We have no WiFi, and no neighbors. When we had the meter tested, we had no internet, let alone no wifi. We turned off the entire house, and the meter was emitting RF. No company or utility of any kind should be legally allowed to "mandate" harmful technology on our homes, our schools, our shops, our churches, or anywhere else. 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 am writing from south of Sweden. My experience beginning 2020 when they put up 2 mobiletowers 200 and 300meters from my home. I ve experience Vitreous detachment and flottets in my eyes and heartpulpatation on and of. 2022 they installd the smartmeter and then it became very bad. My cat got stressed and got problems whit the urin and hairloss on his stormatch. Then my small dog started to pi inside even when we just got in. I got eyemigraine 1-2 times a week and some days up to 3 times/day. More heartpulpatations on and off, toorhpressing, dizziness, stress and anxiety, tinnitus, problems whith koncentration and memory. 2026 they turn on the 5G in the area and the hole famely feels it and we feel it when we are out in the garden I have tryed to reduce it by painting inside and whit reducing fabric. It turned our lives up side down and I think we must sell the house. Maria, Sweden

I quit getting headaches when I started turning my WiFi router off at night. Anytime I sleep elsewhere and WiFi is on, I sleep poorly, and wake with a headache. I can feel pressure in my head when driving by cell towers. I do not want these dangerous cell towers near my home or kids schools, please have better regulations!!

I live underneath a water tower and it has a 5G tower on top of it and I have had chronic headaches ever since we moved here. I went to a functional medicine doc and she said I should move but my husband does not agree and told me we aren’t moving.
