Neurological symptoms & sleep

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 concerned member of the public. Among my concerns is the constant, static-like noise in my head that only silences when I am away from wireless devices and transmitters. As you can imagine, this space is harder and harder to find. 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.

Please stop the EMF radiation that is causing brain fog and fatigue. It is messing with all animals and humans. Please stop

I am an 80 year old female retired real estate broker who has experienced watching wireless radiation being increased every year for the last 30 years! Every year we all get more and more exposure! I have become very sensitive to the point that I could feel my nerves being irritated and could not sleep! I had to buy an EMF protector to put in my bedroom so I could sleep. I also have seen the effects of the wireless radiation effecting my grandchildren! Their little bodies are more vulnerable than adults! I always charge my cell phone in another room but the just wifi in the house is G5, and I know the phone companies are all getting geared up to put out G6 wireless that is going to hurt everyone even more and possible kill us! The Department of Health and Human Services was formed to protect humanity! It does not appear to me that you are doing you job! I would think that you would want to start taking your responsibilities more seriously to protect and save humanity who were created by God, the same as you were and in the end we all answer to God!

I am a Medical Doctor and I treat patients with ElectromagneticHypersensitivity, (EHS). From a fireman sleeping only 60 feet from a cell tower in the firestation, after 13 years, he developed a brain tumor that needed surgery and then a shunt, he developed insomnia and anxiety, he became infertile with a very low sperm count, he got depressed and confused, all thought to be from cell tower non-ionizing radiation exposure.

I first began aware of ticks about age 7 when climbing a sapling in my parents back yard. There was no doctor who could test much less treat the rapid decline my health underwent thereafter. I became aware of cell phone radiation when my husband and I began shopping for our first cell phone using a chart supplied listing make/model/radiation emitted. We chose a balance of low radiation and price. I first became aware of my sensitivity to radiation as a child when entering a department store from a mall and experienced discomfort audibly as being very high frequency. I next became aware of my sensitivity to radiation when entering our local bank. Qhen entering, the ladies would say " we should have known it was you coming, Deb, as our computers froze." Recently, at church, a friend was trying to show us photos of his mission trip but his phone had locked up. I explained thisnhappened a lot, walked away while my husband explained this weird phenominon to him. Once I got far enough from his phone, the man was able to scroll to the photo he was seeking. His mouth dropped open in surprise as I walked back for a repeat. I call this the prince of the power of the air but know that it is radiation on many forms. I can not be in my house with wifi or use a hot spot without wearing tin foil on my head or my stainless steel mixing bowl lined with an apron on my head as the bones in my head feel as if they are being compressed, my jaw begins to ache, my chest feels compressed, i get a headache and can not think correctly, i also become tired. My car thankfully os older so I feel ok while driving it. We need a new car however finding a salesperson willing to invest the time on locating a low tech vehicle plus the other specifics we desire is problematic. Finally, since moving to KY, we have sought someone who was blood vector literate, as our children were both conceived having absorbed all of my infections. At age 39, I was diagnosed by Hopkins with MS. My MRI showed 3 plaques on brain, neck aand spine. Blessidly, at age 50, we took our child to the Amen Clinic where Dr. Joseph Anaboly saved our lives by directing us to ILADS.org where our children and my husband and I were diagnosed with an abundence of Lyme disease and co-infections, viruses, bacterian, parasites, etc. The International Lyme Associated Disease Society saved our lives by correctly testing and treating our illnesses. We remain with those incredible women however, having moved to TN 6 years ago, we recently sought a Lyme Literate Doc. Our naturalpath began by drawing blood and looking at it under his microscope hooked to his computer screen. This is where we first observed Rouleaux (mal) Formations. The Swiss have used basic tests to show exposure to a cell phone in the area in back of their knee (within an otherwise healthy subject ) within minutes displayed flattened, stacked red blood cells appearing as if they were dimes placed one on top of the other in the paper bank holder. I have photos coming of my blood displaying the Rouleaux formations but wanted to send this information in a timely fashion. A cell phone tower was recently built a mile or so away from us so when I go outside, I usually place a double sheet of foil inside the crown of my hat. Our phones are kept in a metal cookie tin at night. I no longer carry a cell phone with me but do when traveling carry a phone inside a cookie tin for emergencies. I am thankful for this opportunity to contribute my experience to help others who experience physicsl discomfort and many interuptions to their lives. I warn many other people about the dangers of radiation to children and small animals. I also caution young marrieds to be accurately tested for LD infections before trying to conceive. Thank you.

In 2017, I was diagnosed with GAD due to strong feelings of stress/panic, muscle tension (especially in jaw), and trouble breathing. I was given fluoxetine and took magnesium and a B-vitamin complex, which all seemed to help. Since my marriage in 2020, my family has sought to decrease our RF/EMF exposure because of health issues my husband was experiencing (he has submitted his own comment). By then, I had stopped taking fluoxetine because I hoped to get pregnant. My anxiety improved over the first few years of our marriage, so that I now no longer consider myself to have GAD. I suspect that my anxiety symptoms improved because of my family's efforts to reduce RF/EMF exposure; my symptoms reappear at times that correlate with RF/EMF exposure. I first realized this when my favorite armchair was positioned over an ungrounded extension cord running to a nearby lamp: whenever I had been sitting in the chair for a while, I would feel extremely anxious and tense and have trouble breathing, even if nothing stressful was going on. When my husband wrapped the cord in aluminum foil and attached a grounding wire to it, the problem went away. I have noticed similar recurrences of my anxiety symptoms, as well as increased brain fog, memory trouble, concentration trouble, obsessive/repetitive thoughts, and general malaise when exposed to smart meters up to about 30' away, a smart garage door opener about 20' away, and bluetooth and wi-fi at distances exceeding 10'. I usually notice the feeling before I realize what's causing it, and when the source is turned off, the symptoms go away, sometimes instantly and sometimes fading more slowly. We recently discovered that dirty electricity may also cause me problems. We were living in a house where I was having all of the symptoms I've already mentioned stronger than normal, and my husband asked me to sit on a couch where I had felt those symptoms particularly strongly before while he systematically turned the circuits in the house on and off until we isolated the circuit that the garage freezer was on. I felt fine when the circuit was on and the freezer was not running, but once the freezer kicked on, even though it was halfway across the house from me, I felt like a wave of something hit me: I was aware of everything happening around me, but I felt zombie-like, and it took massive effort to think or respond to anything. I also felt this sensation recently in a hotel with wi-fi routers on a shared grid, but it improved when we were moved to a room without a router. Additionally, I notice a dull headache if I put my iPhone 6 to my head to talk on a call, so I usually use speakerphone. I have not been able to upgrade my phone despite increasing compatibility issues because anything newer causes sharper headaches, even on speakerphone. The headache lasts for at least 15 minutes after the call ends. Taking magnesium and B-vitamin supplements still tends to reduce but not eliminate my symptoms when I am exposed to something.

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 diagnosed with EMR Syndrome and as an UNPAID 24x7, care-giver to my special needs sister who has also been diagnosed with EMR Syndrome. Due to "years" of continuous, accumulative, 24x7, non-stop exposure from the combination and interaction of multiple and simultaneous RF radiation sources including but not limited to: smart meters, antennas, cell towers, other people's cell phones and i-watches, self check-out registers, vehicle sensors, LED lighting all public places, Flock cameras, security cameras (hospitals, health care settings, public places) smart TV's public places, public transportation, amusement parks (no more Disneyland), "Un-regulated and Un-Accounted" for antennas on neighbor's homes plus neighbor's RF radiation from their smart meters, solar panels and multiple WiFi sources. I have to take care of my sister on top of trying to take care of myself while battling EMR Syndrome. My sister can't communicate how she feels. It's by her behavioral issues and/or mood when I know RF radiation is affecting her and my RF meter never fails to substantiate. Prior to the rollout of 5G, we went to the gym 4 days per week, church weekly, outings with friends, movies, lunch or dinner regularly, birthday parties, had zoo memberships, vacations and a lot of LIFE! Now we are "semi-prisoners" in a shielded home that still isn't enough. This has all been taken away from us and we no longer have the quality of life that we had in the past prior to the deployment of 5G and by the FCC not placing a moratorium to study the health affects on humans when in fact they were given overwhelming evidence of the harm to humans, animals and the environment. We have been denied our quality of life and disenfranchised by the FCC. Our special needs community is even more vulnerable because a lot of this population is non-verbal and some can't process exactly what is happening to their bodies when exposed to RF Radiation. I can testify that it's terrifying being radiated, experiencing instant brain fog and panic then wanting to run away fast from this "invisible" force that's over-stimulating your nervous system and entire body.. It has to be more terrifying for special needs trying to process what is happening and not understanding they're being "radiated." It can trigger behavioral issues leading to unjustified "punishment" and being "Misdiagnosed" or "Let's just heavily medicate, isolate and institutionalize them." Shame on us! Many are probably prescribed "unnecessary, harmful medications" when they might have EMR Syndrome and need to live, work and socialize in a low, EMF environment. I have watched multiple times while attending equine therapy with my sister when suddenly a special needs child would have behavioral issues while surrounded by several school teacher's and aides who all have cell phones and/or i-watches. I've watched in AGONIZING silence, an innocent victim being disciplined, threatened to have their horse ride taken away unless they behave, then threatened to be sent home because they're not behaving. One child got sent home. One child was denied their horse ride. I personally know a bus trainer and the drivers are now complaining of getting sick driving the new, electric buses which have a lot of "sensors." They are trained on how to recognize "sensory" issues. This is now creating havoc on bus drivers and students with "sensory" issues with these new, electrified buses. Short version of our symptoms: tinnitus, tori (bony overgrowth in mouth, mine is massive), headaches, Burning skin, depression, cataracts, tingling in head, minor to major nausea, abnormal skin conditions, irritability, sleep disturbances, dizziness, thyroid disease and brain fog. My sister can't tell me everything that's wrong with her but she has most of the same symptoms I've listed. I'll never know if she has tinnitus but she does have thyroid nodules. One needs a biopsy. No health organization can accommodate us. Help, please! We need help in the ER at hospitals. 2 bad experiences having to take my sister to the ER in the last 6 months and ridiculed by staff when I mention EMR Syndrome. I almost passed out last month in the ER while waiting. Human health should be addressed by federal agencies with expertise in medicine, biology, epidemiology, and public health, and the experiences of families who report being affected should be mandatory with the scientific evidence. Please carefully evaluate these experiences, scientific evidence, identify gaps in research, give attention to children and vulnerable populations and establish federal research priorities regarding wireless radiation. HHS, thank you for letting our voices be heard and making desperate changes in the ER and health settings.

In the summer of 2023, August 23 to be exact, I had my first episode of dizziness. I just chalked it up to lack of food, water and working all day in the heat. The following week I continued to get extremely dizzy. At that point I had no idea what was causing me to get dizzy because I made sure I was drinking plenty of water, eating and staying out of the heat. A week later while riding as a passenger in our truck I suddenly got dizzy out of nowhere. The episode came on with a vengeance. I felt like I had to throw up along with having heart palpitations. Even closing my eyes didn’t help as it did prior to this. We were about an hour and a half away from home at this point when the episode happened. I was unsure of how I would deal with the way I was feeling for that amount of time. I actually came up with the idea to cover my entire head with a black towel we always carry in our truck because we have dogs that sometimes make a mess. For some reason that seemed to work. I rode home with a black towel over my head for over an hour. Once we arrived home I took the towel off of my head. I was still very dizzy. My husband had to carry me into the house because I was unable to walk. He put me in bed. I was never able to go to sleep because even closing my eyes in a dark room didn’t relieve the dizzy feeling. After a few hours of laying in bed, the dizziness finally let up. That was around 7:30 pm. This episode lasted about 6.5 hours. I was absolutely exhausted. Including the next day. After that experience I would have daily episodes but not like what I explained previously. Fast forward to November 23, 2023, Thanksgiving Day, exactly 3 months from my first episode I had a major episode. So major I felt like I needed to go to the hospital. My heart was pounding so hard and so fast I felt like it was going to come out of my chest. Definitely more than a palpitation. I thought I might be having a heart attack. The dizziness felt like I was on a Merry-Go-Round out of control. No matter what I tried it didn’t seem to help. I felt like I was going to throw up but never did. My husband called 911 because I asked him too. They came, took my vitals and said everything was normal. They didn’t feel that it was necessary for me to go to the hospital but took me anyway because I thought it would be better to be checked out more thoroughly. I did go and of course all they could tell me was I had Vertigo. They gave me the equivalent of Dramamine and sent me on my way. I’m not one to rush off to the doctor for things. I try to figure it out myself. So for me to make the decision to go to the Emergency Room was HUGE! I decided I needed to find out what was going on so I contacted my Naturopath. She asked that I see an ENT Specialist before she proceeded with me. Long story short, I did see an ENT and all that was found is that I had Vertigo. After the findings of the ENT I contacted my Naturopath again. She started me on a liver detox. It didn’t work. I pretty much gave up on figuring out what was going on. For months I suffered with what I called bobble head doll syndrome. In my head it felt like it was bobbling all of the time and maybe once a week I’d have a dizzy spell here and there. Not a great way to live. You can’t trust yourself. I was in fear of driving for fear of a dizzy spell coming on at any time. I started to lose my independence because I had to depend on my husband to drive me around. In my opinion I was/am too young to be in this type of situation. Fast forward again, to end of the month in December 2024, I was scrolling through my Telegram channels. It is a channel that gives healthful living tips. This particular post I paid attention to was regarding radiation toxicity. It said if you have these symptoms, one of them being dizziness another being heart palpitations (I don’t remember the other symptoms that were listed) you need to take 8 drops of iodine daily. I had been taking 3 drops a day before seeing this so I was a bit skeptical but tried it. So glad I did because once I started taking the 8 drops of iodine the bobble head doll feeling and dizziness went away. One thing I should mention is I am typically healthy. I’m 65 years young. I’m not on any medications and never have been. I thank God for that. I’m also thankful that a I was able to figure out what was going on with my body. I believe God sent me that post on Telegram. I can’t imagine living my life the way I felt for over a year. It was taking a toll on my metal health, physical health and also my personal relationships.
