ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I noticed a significant increase in migraines since the start of 5g signals. I want to know what are the known symptoms and what we can do to protect ourselves or remediate the problem.

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 concerned member of the public who has become electro-magnetic sensitive. My EMR issues started in 2012 when I had a wireless modem installed in my home and I placed it on my desk instead of mounting the modem farther away in the room and up on the wall. After some time and experiencing like my brain was swelling with nowhere to go, It was trapped in the scull and a feeling of claustophobia came over me. I looked at the modem and saw that there was a switch to turn the wireless feature off which I did. But now no signal to the computer for internet. So, I ran CAT-5 internet cables to my 2 computers from the modem to the ethernet ports on the computers. I also turned off the wireless and blue tooth fearures in the software in the computer. I also turned of the wireless and bluetooth features in my phone and moved my smart phone away away from me to near the front door After 30 minutes the brain swelling disapated and the feeling of claustophobia went away. went away. 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 produced a video on You Tube about the dangers about EMR damage to society. Sincerely, Paul A. Hackman Stone Mountain, Georgia 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 and families with an opportunity to be heard. Sincerely, Paul A. Hackman Stone Mountain, Georgia

I am submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure. My adult son purchased a condo in North Bergen, NJ. On the day he took possession, we drove down from Canada with his belongings. As the guys unloaded, I cleaned the already-clean kitchen with my non-toxic cleaning supplies. I started to feel dizzy, spaced out, and got a headache, symptoms which persisted through the weekend that we were there. I thought it might be mold, so I ran diffusers with tea tree oil and we ensured vents and ductwork were clean. We returned a couple weeks later, and the same symptoms started up again. On our third visit, when the snow had cleared we ventured out for a walk with our two little dogs. That’s when we noticed the cell tower at the bottom of his street, beside The Home Depot. I was immediately concerned, so we paced it out on the way back to his condo. A quick check online confirmed that the tower was on the borderline for an unsafe distance from our son’s living space. The next time we came to visit, the symptoms again returned… until the guys unloaded and brought up a Qi Home device that we decided our son’s condo needed more than our home did, since we live further from the closest cell towers and I do not have any symptoms (even since removing the device). Within a half hour of the device being placed in my son’s condo, my symptoms resolved and have never returned any time we’ve visited him since then. Thankfully, my son did not have the same sensitivity, but that doesn’t mean his health was not being negatively affected by the cell tower radiation (he did complain of fatigue and brain fog before we gave him the device, but hasn’t complained since). I am glad we had that Qi Home device, which cost several thousand dollars. Most people would not be able to afford that, and should not have to remediate radiation from a cell tower erected too close to their homes. People like me are the canaries in the coal mine, we are sounding the alarm and must be listened to. Cell towers should be better regulated, to ensure safer buffers between them and living spaces, so that people like me don’t feel sick, and everyone long-term doesn’t get sick from constant exposure. Please take our stories seriously and move the towers further away from where people live. Thank you for reading.

A parent describes a child's reported sensitivity and cumulative-exposure concerns, relates others' exper…

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, caregiver and a concerned member of the public. My daughter was born with health conditions of unknown origin. I had no understanding of modern EMF, RF, and Wireless Radiation Exposure during my pregnancy or while she was an infant. It took 8 years for a medical professional to come up with a diagnosis. She is highly sensitive to EMF exposure, which we have only recently realized. We are concerned with the cumulative effect all the sources of radiation is on her and our 3 other children. We had a smart meter and had to fight to get that turned off. It's so many places, we aren't even aware of them all and the combined load on our family's health. I know of a friend who lives near a 5G tower and had a normal pregnancy experience, morning sickness, cravings, weight gain, belly growing with no baby living inside the uterus - a ghost baby so to speak, she believes the tower may have caused this. She also experiences headaches and a high pitched ringing sound that her other family members can't hear. Another community member had severe ringing in his ears and crippling headaches while living in the city. He had to move out into the country. Once he did, the headaches stopped. We need more studies to have viable information of risks of EMF exporsure and how to help those most vulnerable and affected by it, especially for the special needs community like my 9 year old daughter. 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 and families with an opportunity to be heard.

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.

We are submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure. We am responding from the perspective of parents as well as a concerned members of the public. When Barbara has the cellphone next to my ear it does not feel the same as a regular phone. She feels dizzy and hot and I get headaches. Barbara's friend who has M.S. also complains of similar symptoms. We 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 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.
