The sensation would last for hours after the exposure. I am a 31yo female and otherwise healthy. I stopped using WiFi and my cellphone. When people would come over I could feel their phone instantly even when it was not calling or streaming - instant ringing in my ears being the first sign. We moved to a neighborhood without 5G towers three years ago and now I do not feel people's cell phones near me and no longer need to ask people to turn them off to walk into my home. I am concerned that 5G has magnified the radiation people are exposed to on a daily basis.","attachments":[],"attachment_inventory":true,"withheld":false,"source":"https://www.regulations.gov/comment/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-2993","tags":["health-experiences","sleep-cognition","exposure-places"],"source_hash":"341866ebe572533b822086fe602c56e936cbe6f25b25c7d3f02851d0ea747c48","slug":"health-experiences-comment-2993","classification":{"id":"HHS-OASH-2026-0397-2993","body_sha256":"50cf88c42d14f10abfcc8faaa00750f47eb85222b4c41ed0e04e42da4ea7bee3","status":"ai_reviewed","primary_topic":"ehs","topics":[{"id":"ehs","evidence":"I discovered I was EMF sensitive 5 years ago, after experiencing hand numbness, ringing in m"},{"id":"neurological","evidence":"tion of water in my ears, brain fog and headaches after being on or around a cell phone.
