The commenter reports better sleep after an analog-meter replacement, notes no current adverse 5G experie…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Wireless radiation in my house was causing sleeplessness, so I had my power company (PG&E) take away the smart meter and now they send a human being to read the analog meter every month. Yes, they charge a small monthly fee to read the meter manually, but it is worth it to us because our health is improved. We are concerned that the new G5 may start causing issues, but we haven't had any bad experiences as of this moment. We have spent lots of money to minimize the ill effects of EMF/eSmog in our house, computer monitors and cell phones. These devices all have stickers meant to minimize the exposure to the bad radiation. In depth studies should be executed to determine what ill effects are actually caused by all the radiation we are exposed to in our daily lives. We know we can't trust the cell phone or internet service providers to study that in an impartial way, so it is up to the government to do the job. Thank you for looking into this and we look forward to hearing the results.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Every time I go by a 5G tower I get a headache. I had two friends die when they let a cell tower be built in their yard.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
For several months now, i experienced a ears buzzing all the time. I was about to get my ears checked when I decided to wait until I come back from the cruise , I was going for a week. To realize that while I was on the ship , I didn't hear anything. The answer was clear and loud. Those towels frequencies make a lot of damage.

The commenter reports cognitive and sleep symptoms around earbuds, phones, routers and nearby towers and …

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
My health has been personally affected by increasingly powerful electronic devices. The first time I noticed this was when using airpods and feeling symptoms of confusion, anxiety and brain fog. Over the years, I realized that smart phones and wifi routers also cause me restlessness, sleep issues and fatigue. Different homes that I have lived in have been impacted by nearby cell towers including one home in Austin which was about 100 yards from a 5g tower. This severely impacted my sleep. Apartment complexes are also troublesome with exposure to dozens of wifi routers. There are hundreds of studies connecting cell towers, wifi routers and wireless radiation to health issues. This is a problem that is only growing! Please take action!

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I am responding to your request for information as to RF exposure. I have gotten severe headaches from a wireless router in the past. Always switch to lowest emissions where I can. If it can give me a headache, what is it doing to my health? This happened even when my roommate turned it on and I didn't know it was on. So it wasn't psychosomatic. I always had it off when I wasn't using it, which I know is a hassle.

The commenter reports mold-related illness and ME/CFS, describes symptoms during phone use and asks HHS t…

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 have been trying to recover from toxic mold exposure and have ME/CFS so I am very sick and unable to work. I have noticed whenever I am near my phone or using my cell phone, I start to feel very ill after about an hour. I get extremely tired with dizziness and brain fog. I also can get headaches and neurological issues, such as difficulty walking. I have a feeling the EMF from the phone is making my brain even more inflamed than it already is from the mold mycotoxins and ME/CFS condition. I would really appreciate it if the HHS could figure out exactly why I feel so awful after using my phone. I am trying to heal from my conditions and want to better understand what factors impede the healing process and why. 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.

The commenter describes a longstanding implanted brain shunt, symptoms and shunt replacement following me…

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 American citizen. Wireless radiation has affected you personally as I have a brain condition (congenital) and I have a VP shunt implanted in my brain. Living with a shunt for 52 years has not been fun but since we were forced to put smart meters in our homes, I suffer from debilitating headaches, poor sleep and general malaise. Additionally, within six months of my home being forced to be fitted with a smart meter, I was in the hospital having a new shunt implanted (my previous shunt was with me for 34 years!) 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 comment.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I would like to say that my wife, my kids and I are sensitive to EMFs, especially 5G. Anytime we stay in hotels or buildings with large amounts of EMFs, we have distrupted poor sleep and do not feel rested and many times will get bad headaches and blurred vision. We do not need more EMFs and especially do not need even stronger EMF fields like 6G coming out.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Since 5G was installed on our street 1 mile from my house, I have not been able to sleep through the night. I wake up 5 or 6 times every night. I wake up EVERY morning with a headache. I have Tinnitis that almost drives me crazy. I have brain fog. I cannot concentrate. I feel nervous and sometimes I have anxiety.
