I am submitting this comment in response to the HHS request for information on electromagnetic fields (EMF), radiofrequency (RF) radiation, and exposure to wireless radiation.

I am responding from the perspective of a patient and a concerned member of the public.

I am a 37-year-old man who is athletic and leads a healthy lifestyle. I have been suffering from electromagnetic hypersensitivity for nearly 5 years and had no specific medical issues prior to that. I had to do my own research and go through a two-year medical odyssey before realizing that this condition was linked to artificial electromagnetic waves.

It all began in November 2021. I had previously been suffering from tinnitus, ringing in the ears, sleep disturbances, and dizziness amid a state of generalized anxiety, which led to cognitive problems, short-term memory issues, difficulty concentrating, and intermittent headaches.

At first, I started by taking a step back and slowing down my pace of life. Despite this, I suffered an episode in October 2025 that left me unable to engage in any public activities. From anxiety attacks to chronic inflammation, along with breathing difficulties and poor blood circulation, I felt a general weakness and imbalance affecting my muscles, nerves, joints, and so on. In addition, I was prescribed medications such as neuroleptics (hypnotic antihistamines) and benzodiazepines.

Since I’m not a fan of synthetic chemicals, after three months I began a detox and an intensive regeneration regimen to break out of this downward spiral. The list of health issues associated with that period could go on and on…

Today, after nearly nine months, I’ve almost returned to normal thanks to this rigorous approach: targeted supplementation, an organic diet, chemical and electromagnetic detoxification (eliminating the most impactful sources), remineralization, and alternative, natural, and holistic medicine.

Having escaped from that hell—which could have led to a much more serious, irreversible illness or even death—I wanted to share my story as an average French citizen whose life was suddenly turned upside down, but who, as a result, has become much more aware of environmental issues. This has helped foster and strengthen my resilience.

I support the active involvement of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) in examining the potential effects of wireless radiation on health and the environment. Issues related to human health should be addressed by federal agencies with the appropriate expertise in medicine, biology, epidemiology, and public health, and the testimonies of individuals and families who report being affected should be given the same consideration as scientific data.

I urge HHS to carefully evaluate these experiences and the scientific data, identify gaps in current research, pay particular attention to children and other potentially vulnerable populations, and establish appropriate federal research priorities regarding wireless radiation and public health.

Thank you for giving individuals and families the opportunity to be heard.
