Reports head pain associated with phones, arrhythmias around Wi-Fi and tinnitus near a solar inverter. De…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I got my first cell phone about 20 years ago. I found that if I held it to my ear when using it my ear and the sourrounding area on my head began to ache, it was painful, so I learned to always use it as a speaker phone and keep it at least 6 inches from my head and then I did not have any pain. To this day I still never put the phone up to my ear. About 15 years ago I got a wifi system in my house. I began to have an irregular heart beat. I did some research and found out that the wifi signal could be causing my irregular heart beat so I disconnected it and went back to a wired system and my irregular heart beat stopped. I lived with a solar electrical system for a year where the inverter was near where I slept and found my tinnitus got worse during that time. Once I moved away from there it stopped getting worse. So those are 3 ways that I have noticed that EMF has negatively affected my health.

Reports tinnitus, insomnia, itching and arrhythmias that worsened in housing with Wi-Fi and nearby towers…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
After moving from an isolated rural location on a lake into a small town in 2000, in short order, I noticed physical symptoms: - incessant ringing of the ears - cardiac rhythm disturbances - insomnia - body itching None of this has ever left to this day. The difference in locations was denser exposure in the town, neighbors' wifi, my own wifi, and no longer enjoyed a clean dial-up web connection. It is as simple as that. This collective of symptoms is certainly mentioned in the literature as related to EMF exposure. Now that I am in a city seniors development, where I am surrounded by even more neighbors, and in eye-shot of two large cell towers, I am never really comfortable with accentuated symptoms. Governments must no longer ignore the accumulated data that puts us all in jeopardy, and especially the young developing brains. Let's clean up our acts of self-destruction.

Alleges use of a tower as a weapon and connects an accident and memory loss to the alleged targeting.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Yes, it makes me very sick. Plus I’m targeted. Those are weapons that we’re talking about the towers and they do hurt me day and night. I’m pretty sure the one going down in Portland before the tunnels caused my accident. I never remember going through the tunnel.

Alleges remote neural monitoring, intrusive voices and psychotronic attacks over many years. Also advance…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I am the individual from Romania that I am remote neural monitored and harassed in the same time with this secret weapons called psychotronic weapons that can be used to attack and even kill but also to generate synthetic telepathy. Since 2016 they have connected four more people with me and I can hear them in my head 24/7 since then. I can communicate telepathically with them and they can also hear my thoughts and even dreams. On the internet they talk about the use of microwaves for this but I think it is not true because I have used aluminum blankets many of them to hermetically isolate a small box with me inside and I was able to block only the phone and the Wi-Fi signal. I think that this weapons use the frequencies of the brain from 0.1 hz to 1 khz. They can be blocked with mu-metal by hermetically isolate a room with one millimeter thickness or more. There could also be microwaves but to penetrate many layers of aluminum the signal would need to be very strong and easy to detect. This weapons have been used against me and my family since 2012. Some of my relatives have been killed with strokes and heart attacks generated with this weapons. Since 2013 I was attacked with all sort of stings, they have induced me dizziness, head heating sensations and since 2016 until recent they have induced me spasms in my shoulder daily when I was trying to sleep. They have even attacked my genitals and now I have problems. There could also be some kind of nano technology / nano bots involved or biological weapons because they have also attacked my mother and she had joints pain and also they did something to her heart as well. They use satellite or ground stations not the 5G antennas by the way. People are also affected by this because it is a mass harassment. I was not able to test if mu metals can block this weapons since the Romanian government has refused to help me. There is also a small chance that the weapons don't use any known frequencies at all and it may be something at quantum level. I am saying this because I have also seen some other shocking thing... time travel. Information from the future that has been sent into the past in movies and other videos.

A parent describes relocation after a nearby tower was associated with headaches and a young child’s nose…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Had to move out of an apt my son and I had been living in for over 3 years. A radio tower was installed mearby, less than 100 ft from our bedroom. I experienced severe headaches and my 3 year old son had profuse nosebleeds. I now cannot be near radio frequencies, wifi or electromagnetic energy without adverse effects such as intense ringing in ears.

Reports headaches and brain fog with perceived improvement after reducing RF exposure and describes a den…

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 parent, family member, healthcare professional and a concerned member of the public . PERSONALIZE YOUR COMMENT HERE: For me, reducing exposure made a difference in my headaches and brain fog. I also think every state..to include Colorado, needs to have an opt out program for every homeowner who would like to opt ot of a smart meter in their home. I have tried and tried and CO won't budge where I live. I should be able to opt out of radiating my bedroom (which is on the other side).  I support HHS taking an active role in examining the potential health and environmental effects of wireless radiation. Questions about human health should be addressed by federal agencies with appropriate expertise in medicine, biology, epidemiology, and public health, and the experiences of individuals and families who report being affected should be considered alongside the scientific evidence. I urge HHS to carefully evaluate these experiences and the scientific evidence, identify gaps in current research, give particular attention to children and other potentially vulnerable populations, and establish appropriate federal research priorities regarding wireless radiation and public health. Thank you for providing individuals, families, health care providers, researchers and scientists with an opportunity to be finally be heard on this critical public health issue

Reports decades of headaches, nausea and concentration problems near a dam and transmission lines. Descri…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I first noticed how I was affected by transmission lines about 35 years ago when I was fishing near a hydro-electric dam (Wells Dam) in the Columbia river in Washington State. While spending more than two days at a time fishing around the dam I started getting terrible headaches and it was affecting my ability to focus and I would actually get quite nauseous. When leaving in the evening, my headaches and nausea would disipate rather quickly. Only to return again the next day when back at the same location. In the years to come I would find that any time I would get close to a large distribution pole that had a four-footed base, I would start to feel the same affects as when I was fishing around hydro-electric dams. In fact, when I was looking for property to build our house, there was a large transmission line crossing some state land in Stevens county, WA adjacent to one of the properties we were looking at. That fact was a deciding factor in not purchasing said property because I was concerned about the long-term affects the lines might have on me if I chose to build a home there. To this day I'm still very sensitive to any place with large amounts of electricity running to it.

Describes substantial work, family, housing and travel difficulties alongside migraines, fatigue, tinnitu…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Questions 2–3: Experience I work in IT/marketing technology and coach youth/high school sports. My symptoms have included migraines, facial tingling, confusion, slowed processing, debilitating fatigue, anxiety, blurred vision, tinnitus, lost sleep, nosebleeds, and involuntary muscle and eye twitching. I report symptoms around TriMeter RF readings of about 1 mW/m² and aim for below 0.5 mW/m² at home. EMF-associated episodes feel similar to entering a moldy building. My nervous system feels under constant attack, unable to distinguish biotoxin illness, allergies, and EMF. This describes my experience, not a confirmed mechanism. I feel persistent reactivity impedes recovery. For over a decade, I worked/slept 5–10 feet from a Wi-Fi router. I suspect prolonged exposure, mold/mycotoxin illness, or possible Bartonella/Mycoplasma infections contributed. These are hypotheses based on thoughtful reflection. Dr. Neil Nathan’s book and online research eventually led me to RF/EMF meters. An environmental illness/biotoxin physician told me he lacked expertise here. Impacts: • Employment: Finding work from a wired home office is difficult; many jobs require office attendance. Symptoms in wireless-heavy offices challenge my ability to earn income. I have struggled to find a clear diagnostic pathway and documentation for disability recognition, accommodations, or support. • Coaching: Symptoms impair quick decisions and emotional regulation. Some parks, schools, and stadiums host antennas [5–6]. I cannot relocate events. • Transportation: Cars are my worst environments. Cell phones, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and vehicle electronics concern me. Some planes, buses, and trains offer Wi-Fi, plus cellular transmissions where permitted. • Relationships: Family and friends sometimes disregard device boundaries. Some have called me “crazy,” adding conflict and isolation. • Housing: Avoiding nearby towers and neighboring apartment Wi-Fi, building a wired home, and finding appliances without wireless transmitters have been difficult. • Daily life: Wi-Fi in stores, malls, hotels, and offices feels ubiquitous. • Hospitals: Extensive Wi-Fi coverage makes hospitals particularly difficult for me. Caring for my parents at the end of their lives was harder because of symptoms I experienced there. I fear being hospitalized without a tolerable environment or accommodations. Questions 9, 11, 15: Children/accountability My children have experienced illness we associate with mold/mycotoxin exposure. I worry about classroom exposures and possible susceptibility from preexisting illness. Provide independent measurements near schools/homes, including towers a few hundred yards away. Proximity alone does not establish excessive exposure. Municipal responses assigning monitoring to carriers leave accountability unclear. Clarify carrier duties, FCC oversight, local roles, and complaints [7]. Approving towers as routine infrastructure without a public vote concerns me. Please ensure advance notice, accessible plans, meaningful public comment, and transparent decisions. If a nearby line-of-sight tower made symptoms unmanageable, I might need to uproot my family. I fear tolerable urban/suburban housing will become harder to find. Moving cannot prevent new towers. Question 16: Research Study sleep, cognition, emotional regulation, and mental health, especially in young people. Reports linking rage or suicidal thoughts to EMF symptoms concern me but do not prove causation or explain school violence. Distinguish exposure effects from pain, sleep loss, isolation, device use, and other factors. Assess vehicle RF alongside magnetic fields from electrical systems, fan motors, and rotating magnetized tire belts [1]. Reflections can create localized RF hotspots; vehicle bodies alter absorption patterns [2–3]. Investigate mold interactions. Ahmad et al. reported increased and decreased fungal growth and aflatoxin production under static magnetic fields [4]. Prioritize research, respectful care, transmitter disclosure, wireless shutoffs, wired alternatives, and workplace/hospital accommodations.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
The roll of out 5G has nearly ruined my life and my health. I have always been sensitive to electromagnetic fields, but 5G is infinitely worse. When I am in an enclosed space (public transportation) with 5G or in close proximity to a wifi router my symptoms start this way. First, I notice a sense of pressure inside my head, followed by intense headache. Then my face and muscles start to hurt and I get ringing in my ears. The more time I spend near it the worse I feel. If the exposure is prolonged I get heart palpitations and nausea. It keeps me from sleeping at night as well. I know this is not psychosomatic because after I connected my commuter in my workstation with an ethernet cable and turned the wifi off, all these symptoms disappeared. I have been able to control to some degree what I am exposed to inside my living space, but public spaces are a different matter. 5G has significantly damaged my ability to participate in life to the point that I cannot work in a public office space and have to limit travel. I have not traveled by plane for 2 years because of this. A change in public policy would hugely impact my life for the better.

Reports headaches near towers during commuting and recreation and expresses concern about installations n…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I have battled with the negative effects of cell phone towers for many decades. On my daily commute, visiting local parks and even attending an annual fair event at our local fairgrounds I have been bombarded by these signals. I get an instant headache that sometimes will not go away for hours after passing by these towers that seem to be multiplying all over the place . I have observed people who have purchased a home with a disguised cell tower next to their backyard. This house has changed hands many times over the past few years since it was built leaving me to question are the folks dying from ill health effects or getting assaulted daily by the same symptoms that infiltrate my reality. This technology is not safe, has proven ill effects and yet we continue to allow this to spread upon our society like a virus. On occasion I go to Camarillo , California where I see a cell phone towers across from an elementary school. In my own town of Ventura , California I see multiple towers at a city college .. a couple more in a shopping center that has a karate studio for children. This is unacceptable for our government to continue to put our youth at risk. The time to take action is now. The ill affects on our children’s future is not worth the benefits of this system. We can do better and need to if we expect to evolve as a civilized society.
