ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I have many symptoms that have only increased over time as EMF exposure sources have increased. I suspected that EMF sources may be a possible cause of my symptoms due to the correlation between increases in EMF exposures and increases in symptoms. A surprise experiment made my suspicions stronger.
When the electricity at my house went out for three days due to storm damage, thereby removing EMF sources (the smart meter, wiring in the walls, Wi-Fi, cordless phones, digital clocks, power strips, etc), my symptoms were temporarily gone. The constant ringing and buzzing in my ears stopped. The tingling and zapping sensations in my body stopped. My seemingly permanent headache went away. I slept better than I had in the years since the installation of the smart meter (that I did not want on my house) and the loss of my ability to turn off the Wi-fi (due to technical problems). Then the storm damage was repaired and electrical service was restored to my house. With the return of the electricity came the return of the EMF sources and my symptoms.
Even without being in a house with no electricity, I can feel differences in EMF exposure in my body. Something as simple as having a digital alarm clock at different distances from my bed affects my sleep and other symptoms. The closer the clock is to me, the worse my symptoms are. The same is true for time spent close to other EMF sources.
I have sought help for various symptoms in the past few years as my symptoms have worsened, but doctors have dismissed my symptoms and concerns. The best I can do is reduce my exposure as much as possible, but there are many exposure sources that I cannot control.
I know many other people have also suffered and continue to suffer from negative health effects from EMF exposure. An evaluation of EMF health effects is long overdue.
