These patients have an allergic-type reaction and/or a sensitivity to high frequency radiation, as found in cell antennas, cell phones, \"smart\" meters, and wi-fi. A smaller percentage even react to lower frequency radiation as found in home wiring that was not properly installed and therefore gives off strong fields.\n\nThere should be much stricter limits on what people can be exposed to.
