I wore a Fitbit on my wrist and within the first 12 hours my hand became very sore and achy. My mom and husband both wore it for a few days with no impact. I tried it again and it was incredibly painful for me. I called the company and they put me through to their safety department and the person told me to take it off immediately and issued a full refund. I can only use my phone in small increments because my hands hurt when I hold it. I am very certain that my body is highly sensitive to wireless radiation or EMFs and concerned that they are all around me.
