ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I'm a 69 y/o resident of Portland, Oregon. In fall of 2019, I became aware that my behavior & energy levels had changed significantly. I can only describe it as a thick brain fog/zombie-like state. I didn't know why. Then, when checking my microwave oven for radiation leakage (it was leaking and I did get cataracts). I was shocked to find I was getting red warning readings whenever I approached the family room phone. This phone was a GE multiple handset phone using DECT technology. We had 7 of them spread throughout all 3 levels of our house in various rooms so that one could call someone in another part of the house and use it as an intercom system. All 7 handsets were emitting harmful levels of electromagnetic radiaton AT ALL TIMES 24/7! I know this because I invested in a meter to detect the amount of radiation. One of those headsets was on my nightstand, mere inches from my head where I was sleeping nightly for years. As soon as we disconnected the phones, the zombie-like condition and my brain fog vanished. Interestingly, around this same time I was walking around the outside of the house when I suddenly felt extremely nauseous, diizzy and began having pains in my head. I was next to our electrical meter. My EMF reader confirmed that it was emitting harmful radiation. PG&E confirmed it had recently switched out our old meter with a new SmartMeter. I asked to have it removed and have had to pay extra money every month since then because "they have to come by to read the meter". The point is, my body and brain had become sensitized/attuned to the frequency of the DECT phone. Consequences to me have been life-altering. I cannot use my cell phone. I cannot be near anyone else's cell phone that is "on" or too close to me without experiencing head pain (different from a typical headache), nausea, and dizziness. I have had to install Ethernet in my house because Wifi causes me physical pain. No more microwave oven. Basically, anytime I am surrounded by other people I am in pain from their cell phones (Ex: waiting rooms, grocery store lines, any group events, etc.). I have become largely homebound as a result. When going out, I have to wear a special cap to shield my head and lessen these effects. I feel head pain from the cell towers along the roads. When 6G rolls out, I fear I will not be able to go anywhere at anytime. The old safety limits are ridiculously high and harmful. Please lower the limits drastically into alignment with other European countries. It is long OVERDUE. You were ordered to a long time ago. There is no excuse for the delay; there are many, many of us out here living greatly diminished lives and suffering when we shouldn't have to. The limitations to my life also cause inconvenience to others, and though they may not feel the physical harm as I do, I know their bodies are being affected nonetheless.
