When I first noticed that I felt ill whenever I entered my house, I struggled for months to determine who would be wiling and able to assess why that was happening. Eventually I learned about building biologists, but shortly thereafter learned that none of them were in Maine. With the help of a building biologist in Virginia, I was eventually able to have my house assessed. I learned that the rf levels were extremely high. After getting rid of WiFi and operating firm Ethernet, I felt some relief for a month. Then suddenly my electric bill leaped from 200 per month to 1000. With another assessment, I learned that I have extremely high levels of dirty electricity. I lived with every fuse turned off for another year and a half to mitigate the problem. Eventually I sold that house and moved only to have a problem with dirty electricity again in the new house. Again I had another assessment done and was given suggestions to mitigate the problem. I am just beginning to implement some of the things he suggested. I have CLL, which has gotten steadily worse due to the emf issues I have had. I know that I and other EMF sensitive people are the canaries in the coal mine. We feel what others are experiencing also, but may not notice. I so wish that peoples’ health mattered more in our country than profits and venture capital,","attachments":[],"attachment_inventory":true,"withheld":false,"source":"https://www.regulations.gov/comment/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-5673","tags":["health-experiences","exposure-places"],"source_hash":"28a14adc951594dd353ed71fa3ef5602d431935b14c15317dd8e507c0adf3ece","slug":"health-experiences-comment-5673","classification":{"id":"HHS-OASH-2026-0397-5673","body_sha256":"c08bf8e943a9be763af183f014dc4d4cf79600eb5991918160243029021a58cd","status":"ai_reviewed","primary_topic":"ehs","topics":[{"id":"ehs","evidence":"I and other EMF sensitive people are the canaries in the coal mine."},{"id":"cancer","evidence":"I have CLL, which has gotten steadily worse due to the emf issues I have had."},{"id":"electricity","evidence":"I learned that I have extremely high levels of dirty electricity."},{"id":"optical","evidence":"After getting rid of WiFi and operating firm Ethernet"},{"id":"access","evidence":"Eventually I sold that house and moved"}],"summary":"Reports EMF sensitivity and worsening CLL attributed to exposure.
