COMMENT My legs and lower back were pained to the point that walking could only happen with support – looking back after some time this could be linked to a new TETRA mast which had been installed in the village. Two wires crossing the gardens were changed to high-tension wires that would enable broadband to be carried. Two years later in 2010 a shocking event further changed my life after an electrical company arrived where I lived and proceeded to cut down trees in the area, under wires and to allow accessible connection to the mast. Electricity meters were also changed in all the houses. At 5.00 pm on that evening my body was assaulted on many levels with effects such as a feeling of alert/panic, palpitations, my burning skin felt as if it wanted to turn inside-out. These were combined with a high-pitched ‘noise’ and a second ‘noise’ that sounded like a diesel engine running. Over the next few nights my body was still on alert and my body was actually thrown out of the bed and in those few seconds I woke up balancing myself on my feet with my arms stretched out before me. The companies related to the mast and electricity were contacted and sound professionals but none were helpful. An inability to sleep as my body was being tormented led to personal attempts to find the source of the noise and wandering down streets and lanes in the dead of night became usual. No source was ever found. Why – because what was happening had already been well studied by Alan Frey in USA and it was called ‘microwave hearing’. The inability to sleep saw attempts made to seek sleep, rest and peace in the car, shed, tent in the garden etc but the ‘noise’ was everywhere. For safety in the dark hours I had to sleep on a mattress downstairs after removing electrical wiring in the fire alarms etc. That was the first physical indication that it was definitely electricity that was causing these effects. Occasionally it was necessary to ask friends if I could spend a night in their house as my home and village was, for me, dangerous. The ‘noise’ was not in other parts of the county and this was another clue leading to my discovery that I was suffering from electrohypersensitivity/microwave sickness. I experienced area after area in the county changing as technological infrastructure was installed. After a year of pain, vertigo, anxiety, concentration issues, palpitations and pain/seizures in legs and eventual wearing down of my body a stage was reached when I knew I had a choice of dying or moving house. What was of great interest was the inability of other people to experience the effects of the changes. Moving was achieved with the help of good friends and since then ‘smart’ meters have been installed leading immediately to an environmental deterioration. The exponential rise of technology has seen additional effects such as nose-bleeds, more variety of pain, memory issues, burning and tingling of skin (like ants running over me), inability to sleep, no peace and no rest, no silence, no possibility of reflection or indeed of staying in one place for long as my body absorbs the electromagnetic/low frequency pulsed microwave radiation from modern technology. My life is now about balancing out positive activities, especially in wooded areas and avoiding places where people congregate such as hospitals, travel, theatres, film houses, public transport, public services – places where people congregate and are drawing in signals with their mobile phones and tech devices Two years after moving CANCER was diagnosed Given the account of my experience of man-made artificial pulsed, modulated, directional signals from modern technology I believe that one reference book is sufficient to cover all effects with up-to-date proven and clear evidence from independent scientists who actually study the biological and health effects of Radio Frequency Microwave and Extremely Low Frequency Electromagnetic Fields as used in wireless communications and other technological applications. That book is entitled ‘Electromagnetic Fields of Wireless Communications: Biological and Health Effects and includes a number of studies by well-known scientists in the field. It is edited by Professor Dimitri Panagopoulos and published by CRC Press, Taylor and Francis Group 2023.
