This is merely anecdotal and episodic phenomena that I have observed when I’m coming up on a 5G tower while driving (sometimes not even seeing it until I’m closer), but when within a half mile of a 5G tower, especially one that is situated lower to the ground, I begin to experience a lot of discomfort, a feeling like I’m about to jump out of my skin or need to get away from that location as soon as possible, sometimes accompanied by difficulty taking in a complete breath, and a feeling that my heart rate changes.

I mentioned this to my doctor, but he told me “that is all internet conspiracy theory stuff” and that the waves emitted are not powerful enough to affect the human body.

Just thought I’d let someone else know! Maybe others have experienced the same thing.
