The commenter describes chronic headaches improved during power outages and after reducing wireless expos…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
To the respectful and understanding reader, First of all, please don’t judge my English, as this is my secondary language. When I was young, my father working in the broadcasting industry, gave our family the love of technology. He believed, like everyone was told, that nnEMF were safe. Having seen a housing opportunity, our whole family moved to a house near huge electric pylons. I lived there for about 10 years. However, I started having health problems on the 5th years. Unfortunately, my father passed away on the 13th year and my mother a bit later, after moving away from this house. A few years later, I started having a permanent headache that wouldn’t go away. I would go to sleep with a headache, then wake up with a headache. I went for a CT Scan and they told me everything was "fine". But it wasn’t fine. Fortunately, I started to have some clues: - My permanent headache went away only when going in the forest, and came back gradually while reentering the city. It occured a few time, but couldn’t understand the link between my headache and the forest. - A long lasting power outage of 5 days, which affected the whole block: no headaches during that time. Headaches came back as soon as the power went back on. This is the moment I understood my headache was linked to electricity, somehow. I wasn’t sure, though, having been told again and again that non-ionizing EMFs were totally harmless. Anyhow, having a better idea of the problem, I tried to get help from professionnals. I thought they would know better than me. After getting next to no help from my doctor and about 7-8 health specialists, that is when I tried to find answers by myself. This led me to a long and enduring path of discovery toward the truth, both for personal and professional reasons. Being a product designer, I use a scientific, neutral and intuitive approach on almost all subjects. So, I did what I normally do when doing research: checking both sides of the argument and trying to spot inconsistencies and biases. I also learned in my career that if you cannot measure it, you cannot improve it. So I started buying various and increasingly expensive EMF meters, covering different frequencies. This led me to understand that there were wiring errors in my house. I also discovered how "noisy" are WiFi and Bluetooth devices. I then tried to turn those antennas off. My headaches went away almost immediately after. Fortunately, I was making progress. Since then the beginning of my then permanent headache, I did more than 3000 hours research of the subject of EMF of many ranges and sources in order to understand the subject thoughly. From my understanding so far, the problem isn’t necessarily nnEMF themselves, but their overabundance. We call that "electrosmog". Don’t get me wrong: I LOVE technology and wouldn’t want to quit my day to day job. It has just became very hard to practice under those conditions. So, my long term goal is to get to know and understand the subject as much as possible in order to create safer products that are respectful of biology, including humans, animals and plants, as I know now that those are affected too. Most of us just aren’t aware. In one line: all lifeforms runs on electricity. Electricity is data. Any change of frequency, energy and vibration is affecting cell at microscopic levels. Under weak non-ionizing nnEMF (WiFi, BT, 60Hz powerline, among others), it first affect blood cells (rouleau formation) after just 10 minutes of exposure but resolves by itself when it stops or if the subject is moving enough to activate blood circulation. However, if someone stand still while using those devices and that it happens all days over a year, bigger problems start appearing. That’s why most lab tests are failing to find evidence: their tests aren’t lasting nearly long enough to find those. Another problem: all cells phones are tested for SAR. Their levels are tested against the FCC rules and they pass it before the product gets released to the public. This is fine by itself. However, when you go inside a cramped bus or subway, those numbers are suddenly going though the roof. Nobody is checking for exposure in those areas. Before concluding, I also met many people having the same problem as me, which was a relief. I must admit though that it wasn’t all good. Many people, including some close friends, didn’t want to believe my story. I had to insist to the point of this health problem nearly breaking our friendship. Thanksfully, I had more listening ears around me than judging ones. Many people are downright hostile toward this unknown problem, as you might have noticed. From what I’ve found so far, what we were told since the 60’ hasn’t evolved much in the public mindset. It even developed as a stigma for many people which will defend heavily wrong theories and assumptions about scientific conclusions driven by the money of the telecom industry. Thanks for caring.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
In my experience and knowledge my symptoms and ailments are all from EMF, WIFI, Smart meters, RF, HAARP, 138hz low Frequency, radio waves and signal microwaves, DEW or Direct energy weapons that James Giordano himself says Americans are being hit By Direct Energy weapons and it's our own Govt and military doing it. Namely the CIA, and FBI Fusion Centers, Infagard, and a host of private business... I have really bad psoriasis all over my back arms and legs that I think are related to Microwaves, DEW, WIFI, smart meters, RF, EF, EMF, Ive aged in looks 10 years in just the last few years due to EMF WIFI and UHF, VHF, ELF, Low frequency. etc... I've been sick and in and out of the Hospital in the last decade just before and after we implemented 5g. I am constantly nauseous, dizzy loss of balance that also began not long after HAARP was launched in 1990. Most say it don't but HAARP Ionizes the atmosphere and makes EMF more deadly. I uploaded a file to Chatbot gpt a audio file or over the air recordings and it said YES it's real and it 's got a lot of Energy behind it. It also said it transmits at 138hz which is a low Frequency. that's why I say 138hz. UHF, VHF Ham, shortwave radio is also used I have forensic evidence of this as well. But the thing is EMF in all it's forms EF, RF, EMF WIFI, Smart meters, nano bots and nano technology, is killing us. Hearing aids need to go back to analog tech too and not use AI and or Digital anything since my hearing aids don't hear sound like it's supposed to be but sounds like cartoons and AI chat bot and or Pokemon and Yougio script... Even the Chatbot gt thing I up loaded the audio file to said it can detect two different signals that aren't normal. There's the real signals then there is a overlaying signal that it detects in my audio files I uploaded to it. https://csaaphill1.substack.com/p/i-uploaded-a-file-to-the-chat-bot that is what it found it has graphs and such from the audio file so please take a look thanks.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Bonjour Au printemps 2020, lors de l'installation des antennes 4/5 G, j'ai ressentit dans des picotements partout dans le corps. Nous habitons à 800 m des antennes. Les picotements sont devenus incessants et intolérables et de nouveaux symptômes sont apparus. J'ai découvert que cela était lié à l’électrosensibilité quand j'ai commencé à en parler autour de moi. Une amie m'a dit que peut être cela pouvait être dû aux ondes. J'ai refusé cette éventualité pendant 1an et demi jusqu'au jour où l’été 2023, les enfants jouaient sur les tablettes avec le Wifi. J'ai eu la sensation d’un étouffement. Même si je respirai à grande bouffée, j'avais la sensation que l'oxygène ne rentrait plus dans mes poumons. Je me suis rendue dans la cave, car je savais qu’en bas, avec le thermo-reflecteur le téléphone ne captait pas. Et ma respiration est revenue. Je suis remontée, j’ai éteins la Wifi, et les étouffements ont cessé. C'est à partir de ce moment que j'ai réalisé que cela venait des ondes. Liste des symptômes ressentis sur une échelle de 1 à 10: – Picotements dans tout le corps par vague : 10 – « black-out » du cerveau : 3 – défaillance de la mémoire, perte des mots. : 5 – Larsen bourdonnement (comme si j'avais la tête dans un micro-onde) : 8 – Vertiges, perte d'équilibre : 5 – tremblement, crampes : 5 – sensation d'étouffement : 2 – Palpitations cardiaque: 4 – Trouble de la vision, flash lumineux : 5 – cystites, difficulté à uriner : 8 – raideur de la nuque : 7 – insomnies : 10 Les sources qui déclenchent les symptômes : – ONDES WIFI et téléphonie mobile, ondes 4/5 G, BLUETOOTH – Lampes à led Détection : J'ai investit dans un appareil mesureur d'ondes basique qui calcule le champ électromagnétique des appareils dans la maison. Aujourd'hui : les sorties sont difficiles, même pour aller voir le médecin. Je ne peux plus me rendre en ville, dans les commerces, dans des endroits publics. Mon travail est lourdement impacté ainsi que ma vie au quotidien. Je passe plusieurs heures par jour dans la cave. J'ai eu RDV avec un neurologue qui m'a dit : " Ca ne m'intéresse pas." Nous pensons à un déménagement dans une zone blanche. Mon médecin m'a conseillé de consulter également un psychologue, afin d'établir un bilan psychologique, m'a donné des comprimés anti dépresseurs, alors que j'ai juste besoin que ça soit reconnu. Je suis soutenue par mon entourage familial proche, même si au départ, la compréhension fût difficile. Les enfants jouent maintenant sur internet par le câble ethernet. Nos téléphones sont en mode avion. Mon état de santé psychologique est assez troublé, dû à l'incompréhension de certaines personnes. (moquerie, colère, désintérêt...). Aujourd'hui je travaille à l'acceptation de mon état et tente de rétablir un équilibre, afin de faire perdurer une vie quotidienne, sociale et professionnelle plus épanouie. J'ai pour ambition de monter un collectif pour rassembler des témoignages et permettre aux personnes de comprendre les dangers liés aux ondes. J'ai rencontré plusieurs personnes ayant une similitude dans les symptômes autour de moi. Je demande à l'ARS Bretagne, de faire remonter au service de santé public national mon témoignage. Ainsi, le but de mon témoignage est l'encouragement à la construction de structures médicales spécialisées en France et à la formation des médecins sur les troubles liés à l'éléctro-sensibilité, de prévoir des installations d'habitations en Zones Blanches, et la réduction des émissions des antennes de téléphonies mobiles / internet dans les villes et les villages. J'envisage de rejoindre une liste de plaignant afin de mener une action en justice commune contre les opérateurs en téléphonie mobile et réseau internet. Je vous remercie de votre lecture et de l'intérêt que vous pourrez considérer à mon histoire.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Smart meter installed and my 19 year old was having Chest pains. He even called an ambulance. Once smart meter removed he was fine. This was not just one incident. Also the smart meter was causing itching skin for my husband & I. We thought it was bugs but your skin microbiome is affected! Once smart meter gone, stopped this. We turn Wi-Fi off at night. Was causing my 17 year old nose bleeds when he slept. Also Wi-Fi was causing irregular menstrual bleeding during menopause. Where i avoided a hysterectomy just by turning Wi-Fi off. When i am nearb 5G towers i bleed .

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I have had and continue to have health effects from EMF exposure. I have been diagnosed as electrically hypersensitive and receive a reasonable accommodation to perform my work in a way that limits my exposure and symptoms. The symptoms started in 2015 and it took seven years of worsening symptoms before I discovered the cause. I was experiencing severe sleep disturbance and fatigue, often sleeping only 3 hours at a time and sometimes only 3 hours all night. Additionally there was digestive disturbance, ear ringing, light sensitivity, increased heart rate, confusion and difficulty concentrating. The replacement of my electric meter, which was a smart meter, with a regular meter resulted in a dramatic but short-lived improvement, followed by a decline. This was my first clear indication that the EMF was related to my symptoms. Since then, many additional measures were necessary to achieve the improved health I now have. Some of the types of exposure that affect me adversely are smart meters, Bluetooth, Wifi, and electromagnetic interference on house wiring. There is a multitude of research showing harm from various types of EMF, and many books citing this research which are easy to find. Consumers should have the right to a regular electric meter upon request at no additional cost. Consumers should receive a warning on the effects of powerful RF emitting devices such as Wifi routers, cell phones, computers, Ring cameras, and all other smart devices. They should be educated on methods to limit their exposure. If they aren't informed, there will be increasing numbers of people that are sensitized due to high exposure.

My son was diagnosed with level three autism. We keep our WiFi unplugged unless we are watching tv or working on the computer from home and anytime that it is plugged in and the tv is on, my son has multiple stemming episodes. Far more than when it remains unplugged.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
In 2009, when Wifi started appearing everywhere, I started noticing stange symptoms without understanding them: nervousness, anxiety, tense muscles, nausea, head-aches, rapid and strong heartbeats, light sleep and insomnia, fatigue, claustrophobia, impatience, brain fog, eye focus problems, pronunciation problems. After 3 years experimenting on myself, I realized I had the symptoms only around wireless radiation. The sensitivity spread to electricity, chemical product odors, mold. My life has been handicapped since. Everything is harder and needs ajustment, preparation. I am currently experimenting a desensitising technic with the new technic of Binaural Sounds from Neuro-Tellura. 3 weeks done on 24. Can't really see results yet. Too early. Thank you so much for what you are doing!

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Je m'appelle Helene NOEL et suis francaise, enseignante et directrice d'ecole. J'ai personnellement subi des effets néfastes sur ma santé , liés aux rayonnements radiofréquences : j'ai commencé à être très fatiguée et avoir des problèmes de sommeil à partir de 1995, après avoir déménagé dans une tour au dernier étage, juste sous une antenne relais de téléphonie mobile. En 2003, je suis devenue insomniaque (réveil à 3h00 am tous les jours sans pouvoir me rendormir). EN 2010, j'ai été opérée d'un neurinome sous le crâne, sur la colonne vertébrale, à la Pitié Salpétrière. Le neuro chirurgien m'avait dit de m'éloigner de mon portable la nuit. Après avoir entendu cela, nous nous sommes renseigné et avons enlevé le wifi à la maison, mais l'été du passage de la 3G à la 4G à Paris en 2013, je suis devenue Electro Hyper Sensible : terribles maux de tête et début d' Alzheimer avec oublis de tout tout le temps, incapacité à me concentrer , incapacité à faire à manger à mes enfants , incapable de m'organiser, je me suis perdue dans la rue à 50m de chez moi (j'avais 45 ans) je n'arrivais plus à lire ou faire des opérations simple ou compter à l'envers, maux de ventre très importants, nouvelle allergie au gluten, sucres rapides et lactose, grosse disbiose, etc. J'ai fait un test Alzheimer à 45 ans à l'hopital de La Pitié Salpétrière (surtout avec des exercices physiques, et on m'a dit que le test était adapté aux personnes agées, et pas à moi) J'étais devenue incapable de travailler au passage de la 4G, et suis tombée en arrêt maladie pour 2 ans. Ce qui m'a sauvé : un voile anti ondes pour dormir, puis un déménagement à la campagne, où j'ai pu reprendre le travail en classe et une direction d'école. Pour vivre sans maux de tete et vertiges, je dois faire très attention à ne pas rester plus d'une minute avec un telephone portable ou plus de 15 min dans le wifi ou la foule (= avec beaucoup de téléphones portables ) et donc : je ne peux pas aller dans les grandes surfaces, pas de restaurants ou cinéma, pas de foule, etc) Le déménagement à la campagne a boulversé ma vie et celle de ma famille, car mon mari a dû rester travailler à Paris , ne pouvant revenir dans notre nouvelle maison que les week ends, et nos enfants ont grandi sans leur père présent à partir de leur 13 et 7 ans. J'ai quitté tous mes amis et ma famille élargie (parents vieillissants et mes frères et leurs familles) pour vivre à 300 km de Paris, loin des ondes. Les effets sur le corps est le plus important, mais les effets psychologiques ne sont pas négligeables...

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I find there’s no way to truly understand the effects, but I cannot sleep soundly in my bed, as we have a house full of WiFi and cell towers nearby by, and tired and wired most of the time, but when I go tent camping at the Smokey mountains Cade’s Cove - with no power, WiFi etc. I feel rested and calm with more energy, focus, and better sleep. I breathe more fully and feel more in tune to a healthier sleep and wake cycle. This also happens when I visit friends who live in a more remote area of Ga.. I live in a densely populated area of Greenville SC

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I am writing as an individual with first-hand experience (Q2). I am from Israel. My field is computers and the internet, which makes what follows especially hard. How it started (Q3a-d) It began in 2016, or at least that is when I became fully aware of it. My wife and I came back from a vacation in an isolated place abroad and felt really unwell in our own home. I already had an RF meter, but it wasn't fast enough to show what was really happening in the house. After buying a better one, we found a cellular antenna in direct line of sight of our home, and many sources coming from our neighbors. Even before I knew there was a source in a room, I felt pain in my body, and where the pain was told me where the source was. My symptoms were: - Headaches of a very specific kind, like the feeling after being hit on the head. I get the same headaches from exposure to chemicals. - Exhaustion. - Body aches, like the flu. - Confusion, forgetfulness and difficulty finding words. - Difficulty concentrating and doing creative work. - Pain in my fingers, from wireless radiation and also from magnetic and electrical fields. - Sleep problems. The sources involved were Wi-Fi, mobile phones, cellular antennas, transmitting devices at home, and electrical and magnetic fields, including grounding problems. My wife is also sensitive, less than I am, but she suffers the consequences of commuting and working in places with Wi-Fi and antennas. Medical evaluation (Q3e) I took part in a study by a physician who is herself sensitive to radiation. After she received threats, she asked participants not to use the summary she had written, so I have no medical document to attach. What I did, and what changed (Q3f) - I switched off all transmitting devices and the Wi-Fi at home. - After four years of searching, we moved to an apartment with much lower levels. Even so, it took weeks of thorough shielding and fixing grounding and other electrical problems that were causing pain. - I stopped using public transportation. - I moved from the office to working from home and reduced my salaried work. I now teach mostly over Zoom. - I improved my diet, reduced alcohol and took vitamins to help cope with the effects. - I keep track of where antennas are and try to avoid exposure, including by not leaving home. After the move and the shielding, my cognitive abilities and creativity improved greatly. The finger pain is mostly gone and only reappears after prolonged exposures and mental stress. I have far fewer headaches, though chemical exposure still triggers them. I can now make short trips to places with Wi-Fi, and even teach a class 2 hours a week, but I need time at home to recover afterward. What I can no longer do I stopped going to concerts, movies and social outings. I can't travel abroad or take a vacation without first checking that there is no Wi-Fi or antenna where we will sleep, for fear I won't sleep at all. We can't simply move anywhere: homes with few neighbors and low exposure are very hard to find. I can't work in an office, because Wi-Fi and mobile phones are everywhere. I can't attend courses in person. Buses, taxis, trains and planes are Faraday cages full of Wi-Fi and phones, so I can't use them. I can't attend crowded events such as seminars or parent-teacher meetings, or spend time in places with strong radiation from nearby antennas or powerful Wi-Fi, which is common in schools. The cost Socially: my chances to meet people and form new connections are very limited. People treat this condition dismissively, as if we were imagining it, even though some of them tell me about relatives with similar problems. Relying on social media instead created problems of its own. Mentally: living in isolation most of the time, with fewer ways to earn a living, causes anxiety and other difficulties and has hurt my self-image. Education: my learning options are limited to Zoom. Financially: I can't work as an employee in an office in my own field. We live relatively frugally and receive a scholarship for our son's studies. Why this matters beyond me (Q9, Q11, Q15) I believe the lack of awareness harms everyone: - Unnecessary wireless equipment is installed in schools without understanding its possible health effects on children and on cognitive performance. - Antennas are installed close to homes and schools. - Wireless components that can't be turned off are added to appliances such as air conditioners, water heaters, robot vacuums and speakers. - People use phones everywhere, including enclosed spaces, at all hours. That leaves no break from exposure, even at night while sleeping.
