With the high EMR my body succumbs easily to metals, parasites and tick borne illnesses.\nI work with several medical professionals so these conditions are well documented. Recent annual testing show that physically I am healthy and have no chronic illnesses that require regular pharmaceutical medicines.\n \nReferences:\nThe Invisible Rainbow by Arthur Firstenberg\nAll EMF*d Up by Anne Mills\n“Physicians for Safe Technologies Conversion Chart” https://mdsafetech.org/conversion-and-exposure-limits-emr-emf/\n\nMeters used to measure EMR levels:\n2020 - Trifield Meter (mG – millignauss; V/m - volts/m; mW/m² - milliwatts/m²)\n2020 – Stetzerizer Microsurge Meter (GS – Graham Stetzer Units)\n2025 - Safe & Sound Pro II Meter (µW/m² – microwatts /m² and V/m)\n\nShielding Products:\nLess EMF https://lessemf.com/\nSafe Living Technologies https://safelivingtechnologies.com/\n\nAdvocacy:\nHamden Weighs Rules for Massive Battery Storage Project, The Reporter, December 8, 2025 – https://www.the-reporter.net/stories/batteries-benefits-and-big-questions-hamden-weighs-rules-for-massive-battery-storage-project,225906?\n\nPublic Input at Walton Town Meeting – Negative Health Effects from EM, The Reporter, Feb 11, 2026\nhttps://www.the-reporter.net/stories/walton-resident-warns-of-health-effects-from-electromagnetic-exposure, 235756?\n\nCumulative EMF and RF Fields\nWith the increasing objects emitting more and more EMR fields in our environment, these days my tolerance level has become lower and lower.\nThe accumulation of all the fields of all the devices in our environment far exceeds any reasonable standard established for the individual devices, when each one is declared “safe”. \nThe mitigation measures I’ve taken, at great personal expense, is so I can live comfortably in my home.  However outside my home, the accumulation of dirty electricity and radio-microwave fields together, if I have meetings or am in a room with Wifi, LED lights/dirty electricity and a group of people who all have their phone turned on, the fields are intolerable to me triggering a migraine even wearing shielding clothing.\n\n\n\nSee attached file(s)","attachments":["https://downloads.regulations.gov/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-5218/attachment_3.pdf","https://downloads.regulations.gov/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-5218/attachment_5.pdf","https://downloads.regulations.gov/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-5218/attachment_2.pdf","https://downloads.regulations.gov/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-5218/attachment_4.pdf","https://downloads.regulations.gov/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-5218/attachment_1.pdf"],"attachment_inventory":true,"withheld":false,"source":"https://www.regulations.gov/comment/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-5218","tags":["health-experiences","sleep-cognition","exposure-places"],"source_hash":"82e912222cf93926b2d8a72397742c84f7dc98cb49775a8e6f5ea1b827559c6f","slug":"health-experiences-comment-5218","classification":{"id":"HHS-OASH-2026-0397-5218","body_sha256":"237ae78dbd0ff04de2af0513dddc9dd5a820a254978a0ee36f1a4dbf1d792759","status":"ai_reviewed","primary_topic":"ehs","topics":[{"id":"ehs","evidence":"I have EMR Syndrome (electromagnetic/radio microwave syndrome), meaning I get sick f"},{"id":"neurological","evidence":"sick from exposure to those fields including frequent and severe migraines, digestive issues, restless sleep, fatigue, bruising, eye floate"},{"id":"wifi","evidence":"elds together, if I have meetings or am in a room with Wifi, LED lights/dirty electricity and a group of people who all have"},{"id":"electricity","evidence":"However outside my home, the accumulation of dirty electricity and radio-microwave fields together, if I have meetings or am in"},{"id":"access","evidence":"ople who all have their phone turned on, the fields are intolerable to me triggering a migraine even wearing shielding clothing.\n\n\n\nSee at"}],"summary":"The commenter identifies EMR syndrome, reports migraines and other symptoms, describes measurement and shielding efforts, and raises concerns about cumulative exposure and difficulty tolerating shared spaces with Wi-Fi and electrical sources.","reviewed_at":"2026-10-27T19:20:49Z","review_method":"Full comment-text review with exact source evidence; attachments not reviewed","review_source_sha256":"d3788d1d614fa6c3789ee7fa323ff44077cdade8b8d5ed66af716757b6c2bbde","source_url":"https://rfsafe.net/hhs-comments/data/catalog.json","scope":"Original comment body; attachments excluded"},"forum_topics":["ehs","neurological","wifi","electricity","access"],"primary_topic":"ehs","forum_title":"The commenter identifies EMR syndrome, reports migraines and other symptoms, describes measurement and sh…"}
