It is not a smart meter but it is a wireless meter for reading purposes.  When I sit at the kitchen table  the digital meter is about 5 to 6 feet away on the other side of the kitchen window on the outside wall.  I almost immediately start to have an upper chest pain start up and go across my entire chest.  It will persist when I sit in this chair close to the wall with the digital meter on the other side.\n\nThis only happens when I sit at this kitchen chair that is close to the digital meter on the outside wall.  When I get up and move and walk away the pain subsides.  Even if I am cooking in the kitchen I do not have this pain.  It only happens when I am stationary sitting at this chair that is close to the outside meter.\n\nThe EMF's from this digital meter I do feel within our home and have to be detrimental because of the symptoms I experience only when I sit close to this digital meter.  No one else in the home uses this kitchen chair to sit at during the day.  Please investigate the EMFs emitting from the digital meters and the smart meters.
