A healthcare professional describes decades of symptoms, heart block and pacemaker treatment, and perceiv…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Question number two: I am a healthcare professional responding as an individual based on my own clinical observations. Question number three: a) All noted forms of exposure except wearables, unless that would include a pacemaker, and occupational equipment. B) The nature of exposure is through common household, business, and individual devices with frequency as per normal daily life. I do question if initial exposure could have been in my workplace of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of the hospital I worked due to onset of adverse symptoms specific to that location and time beginning in 1990, that resolved when those restrictions were removed. Future adverse effects were noted with the growth of prevalence in normal society over the decades. Adverse effects multiplied with increased use of cell phones, including non smart flip versions, proximity to cell towers and use of cellular devise with decrease of symptoms noted with ending call and increasing proximity of both from person, personal devices used in home, places of business and worship. All of theses being experienced from late 1990 to present in increasing degrees. There is one other possible exposure that would date back to the 1970’s and continue to present. Even as a young child I noticed an odd sensation when at a particular home that was adjacent to very large power lines. C). Adverse effects noted are hot and cold temperature variations, an off balance feeling of being pushed, feeling of anger or uneasiness for no reason, hearing high pitched noises in one or both ears, feeling of floor or myself vibrating, not feeling like myself, increased blood pressure during these experiences, tingling of hands and arms, especially when holding a cell phone or iPad with increase noted in association of updates to software where as time to tingling decreased from needing approximately thirty minutes or more exposure to approximately immediate or proximity to a cell tower, electric shocks ranging from minor such as is noted when flipping a light switch to taking my breath away and causing me to scream out, brain fog, fatigue, difficulty sleeping, presyncope to degree of fear with driving my children, increased heart rate and respiratory rate, feeling of needing to flee an area but with no noticeable threat, general chaos feeling inside my body, soreness, inability to move arm or neck, menstrual difficulties, and a particular sensation when near electrical devises that are making a humming sound such as an induction stove top, a surge protector, speaker, electrical panel, and on certain locations of a departing airplane. I cannot say this is an exhaustive list. D). As above and noticeable changes have emerged as exposures have grown with attention to wireless devices, increase of use such as in areas that have more or more powerful devices, during nuclear stress testing, after smart meter installation, this spring after fiber installation on my road, and within five minutes of mammogram. E). Medical evaluation was sought specifically for some of the above symptoms beginning approximately 2007. It was continually dismissed until 2017. At my demand of assessment and treatment, heart block was identified progressing to complete heart block within weeks and resulted in placement of pacemaker. This began an ongoing event of more symptoms with greater severity of some, new ones, with alleviation or improvement of some, including two more surgeries resulting in a complete new pacemaker system being placed at eleven months post initial one. More medical evaluation was sought in approximately 2021 in correlation with an episode of whole body vibration, uneasy increasing to anxiousness, tingling of hand while holding phone, and anger noted with use of flip cell phone as never experienced before. My MD questioned specifically if I knew how close to a cell tower I was as these symptoms increased and culminated. I was able to identify that I was parked within feet of a cell tower and that symptoms subsided once I threw the phone away from my body and drove away as to increasing proximity to tower. Since, I have continued to seek medical care for these symptoms with a renewed emphasis since about 2024 where I noticed an increase in virtually all but particularly the onset of drenching night sweats, sleep disturbance, extreme menstrual abnormalities, and fatigue while staying in an air B n B where there was a loud humming noise every morning at the power meter that was coincidentally on the outside of the wall where I slept. Again, this is probably not exhaustive. F) As noted in E above. G) I have no supporting documentation without securing my medical record.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I live near an inactive mine that carries rare earth minerals. I moved to this house 20 years ago and have been sick since. Everything from depression to hypothyroidism to fibromyalgia to Hashimoto to imbalances. I’ve experienced anxiety, nervousness, loss of hair, nails, skin irritations, migraines, brain fog, weight gain, etc. In 2010 the county took by imminent domain a radio tower and turned it into a 911 tower. It isn’t even in the county. When I began to speak out about it, they would turn the tower’s red light off at night and keep the bright day lights flashing in my houses windows. FAA wouldn’t get involved and after a couple of weeks and complaining, they turned them back to red. My iPhone 12 would heat up and lock itself down for to hot and must cool down. I’ve had the IPhone 12 since 2020 and it’s been a constant hot problem and worse while charging. I bought a Starlink for the home and began noticing in 2024 it would heat up and I’d have to unplug it. It was worse in the middle of the night. In 2024 I began feeling radiation burning in the middle of the night and outside during the day. I began taking photos of the burns on my face. 2025 was worse. In July 2025 I began to be constantly exhausted and burned even in the winter. My highly sensitive dog began having seizures in July 2025. Every time he would have a seizure, my heart began having rapid pulsations and feeling like it’s flip flopping. I started swelling daily. Concentration was hard and I began cancelling life. Staying home to survive and take care of my poor dog that is still having seizures. I removed the wifi in June 2026 and the towers are still pushing out frequencies and burning me. In the past five years surrounding me in my country neighborhood, suicides and cancer deaths have been a normal thing. I purchased a EMF reader and all of my electric sockets would read dangerously high. The electrician who installed a whole house surge protector called it “Dirty Electric”. I could feel electrical surges in my fingers. I personally feel I am targeted but I also am experiencing everything in my house and outside of my house is slowly killing me and my dog. I have called elected officials and I have tried to get help to look at my electric and I get ignored. Recently I found my house and land listed in projects on USGS. They will not respond to my inquiries or answer me but the write up included electromagnetic information that I don’t understand.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I am submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure. I am responding from the perspective of a patient. I first starting noticing signs of EHS about 8 years ago. Brain fog mainly and headaches, insomnia and tinnitus. But it may have been affecting me a few years prior as I had unexplained hormonal issues with anemia. In 2021 my symptoms reached a new level with the introduction of 5G and possibly an affect from shedding of the covid vaccine? I would wake up feeling like I was dying most mornings. I had neck pain, followed by double vision (from left eye not moving correctly), a week later I had bells palsy also in left side of face. I saw a neurologist who told me I had MS, but would need an MRI to confirm, I told him I would but it would 'fry me'. He gave me a 5 day course of steroids- extremely high dose. This stopped the bells palsy within about 4 days, but the eye took another two weeks to work correctly. He told me I had inflammation of the Pons and upper brain stem. I was to see him 3 months later. At this point I rapidly shielded the majority of my home and bought a EMF shielding canopy to sleep under, along with a sensitive RF meter. I also started to seriously avoid all sources of RF. Getting shopping delivered to my home and only visiting places/ areas that I knew to be of low emission. At the next appointment (2022) he told me 'It's a miracle!' he repeated this several times during the manual examination. He told me he was expecting me to have to be given another strong course of the steroids for MS. But I was by then able to walk well and was feeling 'sort of' better. I reported what I had done and that I was EHS, he then told me that I could not have an MRI. And he would not be able to assist me in this direction or diagnose me with EHS. He wished me the best and informed me about using Google Scholar to research myself. Since then I have completely cleaned my environment of all RF and some problematic EF and EMF, which may have also contributed to my condition. Shield and avoid. What this actually means is I no longer have any social life as I cannot go anywhere near mobile phones or wifi or I will get ill very rapidly. It starts with the tinnitus getting louder- sometimes to the point of pain. My head feels full and pressurized. I feel the effects as a stimulant at first, talking rapidly. But after about 20 minutes this drains me into brain fog and fatigue. At about 30 minutes my legs will start to wobble, my heart will palpitate. My eyes don't see clearly, I will have an intermittent vocal tremor with stammering. These side effects will start to go once I am out of the high radiation, a slight effect can go in an evening, but more serious effects can last a few days or weeks. I am currently still suffering from a major accidental exposure that left me unable to walk correctly for nearly two weeks, along with neck pain and gave me a shadow in the top left of my right eye, which is still there over a month later. This sounds like MS to me and my eye specialist, but it was brought on by being exposed to very high levels for over 20 minutes. Possibly also to shedding exposure. I am currently having treatment from a homeopathic Dr, she has helped me to become somewhat tolerant compared to how I was a year and a half ago. I also take a host of supplements, drink and cook with ceramic filtered water. Try to eat organic, do not eat processed food. Do not eat gluten or diary (except a little cheese). The worst part is I can no longer attend family events, my son who came back to live with me after leaving Uni last year hates living here (rent and bills free, I also cook for him and help with his laundry) because he cannot use his phone (has to go down the garden to use it). He says this makes his life a misery as he cannot use it. Although he is supportive. I cannot visit my Mother, who lives abroad because I cannot fly anymore due to the radiation exposure. She is in her 80's and of ill health. I can't even go to the shops. I have one 'safe' route out of the city which gives me minimal exposure. But here at home I am surrounded by masts and RF from multiple sources. Even cleaning my van is a rush as it will make me ill. I am very glad that you are looking into this. Even though I am not in the US, where the US goes the world usually follows. And with knowledge hopefully things can happen, people can be educated. My wish would be seeing a reduction of radiation emissions from devices and masts. Technology that would allow me to also use a phone. But probably the best thing would just be recognition, so we can be diagnosed and maybe even treated. My symptoms could be MS triggered by EHS, or EHS showing as MS? There is no way to know. I just want my life back. I am living in a prison with no current parole. Thank you so very much, you have given me hope. God bless.

The commenter describes longstanding symptoms and work and housing barriers attributed to wireless device…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
After 3 years of feeling ill when I entered various buildings - I tracked down the cause - i was the frequencies emitting from wireless devices. This was over 20 years ago. I could remove myself from said building and immediately recover from the symptoms of dizziness; nose-bleeding; vertigo; flushed face; breathing changed; palpitations/Arrhythmyia; disorientation - to name some, not all. 20 years on, It takes me 1 - 2 days to recover when I have been exposed to the radiation from a single wireless device. Needless to say, all my internet access is wired. The severe limitations to where I can work, and now live, create enormous difficulties in every single day. The effects on a fit, healthy, populus is staggering. Being radiated daily is clearly killing us slowly but surely. It can be changed by making the frequencies bio-compatible rather than damaging human ( and animal) cells so that they cannot function and disease is created. In the meantime - ALL internet access needs to be hardwired and the public made aware of the dangers of using wireless to power their devices - as they are radiating themselves and others in their vicinity. The choice to be radiated or not should be with each person. There needs to be 'zones' in the meantime ie a place where wireless power source can be accessed without radiating everyone else around the user. Education needs to be widespread about the effects on the human cells and therefore health from use of wireless devices. I am submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Electromagnetic Radiation is continuing to increase with devices and 5G on Street Lights, Phone Towers, 5G Masts, Traffic Control Phased Arrays, Facial recognition Towers on Main Roads and in Supermarkets. We must now start to eliminate these Health Hazards. Myself, my Husband and 8 Neighbours were made ill by a Telensa Street Light Base Station, to switch the Street Lights on and off. Parish Council and County Council gave us the run around and eventually when I threatened the Lighting Department that I would hold the Individuals personally responsible if My Husband's Cancer came back they moved it half a mile away. Unfortunately it is still in our village and there is another one close to the school. Many of the Phased Array devices and Electromagnetic Radiation Patents class them as Biological Weapons and yet we are still subjected to them whenever we go to Town. I live in the UK and the situation here is just as bad as in the USA. The National Health Service has to pick up the bill for all the Heart Attacks, Strokes and Cancers these Devices cause.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I suffer from Idiopathic Environmental Intolerance (IEI) and Multiple Chemicle Sensivity (MCS). I have many symptoms including Hi BP because I believe my 2022 heart attack was triggered by dental work, 5G, X-Rays, Wifi, and A/C unit. I had cancer removed from my lip in 2006 most likely caused by excessive dental x-rays and never getting any work done. I informed the hospital when I had my heart attack, I had Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EHS), we discussed non metallic stents and my inability to take medications due to severe side effects, they dismissed everything I told them, next thing I know there's a piece of metal in my chest I told them I did NOT want and a prescription for 7 medications, of which 6 gave me the side effects. I printed a folder with information about my condition because none of the doctors, I've explained my condition to since 2015 know anything about my condition. To date not a single doctor has looked at my folder including the doctor that prescribed the stent after a Methylene Blue Hypertension side effect in 2025 who asked me what I tell doctors that say I am crazy, I laughed, pulled out my folder and said, I offer them this folder with pier reviewed studies, Pub-Med articles and testimonial's from people like me, but to date no doctor has looked at it, he refused to look at it too, now that's crazy. My chest hurts all the time, either from the blood thinner medication side-effect, the conductive metal in my chest or a combination of the two and I suffered nerve damage in my back from his recommended stent surgery, I am now disabled. I have to explain the difference between Microwave Hearing and Tinnitus to medical professionals that could care less. I hear multiple pitches I can only describe as children with different whistles blasting them, all at once or just a few at a time, sometimes it stops altogether for a brief second only to start up again with a different pitch and the painful clicks and chirps. I also had the same pain in my chest I had with the heart attack for a period of 20 years at ages 12 through 32 diagnosed as indigestion/gas, this was when 1G cell phones were in use, coincidence? When 5G was rolled out in 2022, 20 years after 1G ended I had the same pain in my chest I found to be the one of four kinds of heart attacks most commonly mis-diagnosed as gas/indigestion. My Osteopathic doctor wants me taking medications I told him I've tried before, he says I should just take anyway, I informed him that's not why I chose an Osteopath. I wrote letters to President Trump in 2016 and RFK Jr before he became United States Secretary of Health and Human Services in 2025 with no replies from either. Instead, I had a heart attack, survived and I'm telling anyone that will listen. In addition, my father died of a blood clot, he was first class radar-man in WWII, he suffered from insomnia and headaches for sure, he passed in 1987, I've seen research that indicates those first radar-men reported radiation sickness side effects, it can damage DNA and be carried on genetically. A Neurologist told me come back when it gets worse, he didn't care I had been living in a van down by the river for the last 7 years to mitigate my symptoms (he refused to look at my folder too). It sucks being the smartest one in the room, and you're in a doctor's office.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Thank you for the opportunity to testify to the horrible effects EMF has on the human body. When I hold my smart phone my hands ache. I can feel the waves pulsing through my body, clear to my feet. It feels like my bones are being stripped of life. I cannot get a good nights sleep. The EMF waves make me so fatigued , they zap all my energy. It is very difficult to live like this day after day. I really noticed a huge difference when 5G rolled out. I wear a EMF protection beanie, jacket, a blanket under me and over me. I also wear a copper bracelet to help decrease the pain. My skin itches, and it feels like bugs crawling all over my body. It never goes away. My eyes are dry, and my vision is getting worse. I just had open heart surgery. I can feel the EMF waves effect my heart and its rhythm. Oh please regulate this for the sake of peoples health. This is an injustice to the people when we have no choice where towers are placed and poles put by our houses and in our yards, and smart meters changed out without our permission on our houses. Other countries don’t allow this because they understand the health effects.

I am submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure. this is a personal story related to my health and the desk top i got and then lap tops. from the very beginning i could feel my heart start to pound after using that computer after about an hour...but i kept saying just a little bit more and i would go and go and by the time i made myself get off, my heart would really be pounding and my eyes all blurry. and it has been that way ever since, even now with the lap top i have. I have had heart problems ever since. i just try to get on lap top to see how i can serve in the world and get off as soon as i can. it also just makes me feel dingy. i hate the feeling and try to stay away from it as much as possible. i do not have the phone on unless i am going to use it and have a land line. i turn off the lap top all day unless i need it for a minute or two i KNOW it had ruined my eyes.
