I am hypersensitive to EMFs. Why is the electric company allowed to force dangerous smart meters on our houses. What about the Energy Policy Act of 2005? Help us and stop them

This court case is happening in America is because of the FCC abusing its power authority, denying people protection/forcing exposure. For me a multitude of neurological symptoms occur as a result of exposure to pulsed and modulated RFR. The symptoms described in the scientific and medical literature I suffer with include headaches, sleep problems, heart palpitations, ringing in the ears, dizziness, nausea, skin rashes, depression, memory, and cognitive problems, among others. In my experience, exposure avoidance is the only effective management.

• Who is the respondent? Individual consumer • Type of wireless technology? Wifi. 5G. • What is the nature, duration, frequency and approx. timing of reported exposure? Wireless wifi-signals and wireless 5G-signals. • What are the potential adverse health effects experienced? A very high-pitch sound that one can hear most of the time. The sound changes in volume from most often quite low, to higher in strength, and sometimes it is silent. It is not tinnitus. It is a public ‘sound’ nuisance and more of an annoyance. Also, when being in certain geographically locations/spots, there appear increase pain in injured shoulder. When visiting a close relative on the opposite side of the city, there is an area in the apartment where signals from one of the official authorities go through. The signals pass through the apartment and are about 80 cm wide. It is always very difficult to use a smartphone in that specific area; the connection is usually broken or disappears. The high pitch sounds usually increase when being in the place where the signals pass the building and after approximately 15 minutes, it starts to fell painful in injured shoulder. • When did the potential adverse health effects first appeared in relative to when exposure began? The high-pitched sound was first noted in the fall of 2020 and then only when being close to a municipal bike-sharing place where they have solar cell panels to provide battery/electricity to the wifi for the bikes. The pain in the shoulder starts after approximately 15 minutes. • Whether medical evaluation of treatment was sought? No. • Whether steps to reduce or eliminate exposure were taken & whether changes in adverse health effects were observed? Apart from placing smartphone at some distance when not using it and turning of wifi at home when not using it, it is in principle impossible to reduce exposure since living in a city and an apartment where there are 5G-signals and other wifi-signals from neighboring apartments, etcetera. Try to minimize longer time spent in the specific area in the apartment where the signals pass through. • Any other info, doc, pics etc? I would also like to take the opportunity to add…

1. & 2. I am responding as: family member of an individual

3a. Type of wireless or RF/EMF sources involved (e.g., mobile phones, Wi-Fi, smart meters…)high voltage power lines

3b. Nature, duration, frequency, and approximate timing (e.g., years):During two years when we lived very near to high voltage power lines.

3c. Adverse health effect(s) experienced:My 4 year old son was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia at the age of 4 years old after living for two years in close proximity to high voltage overhead power lines.

3d. Time from first exposure to first appearance of adverse health effects; and did a change in exposure coincide with the onset of adverse effects:approximately one year after exposure over a two year period he was diagnosed.

3e. Was medical evaluation or treatment sought? (Optionally:) Was there a diagnosis?Yes, he received three years of chemotherapy and cranial radiation after the diagnosis of ALL

3f. Were steps taken to reduce or eliminate exposure, and were there subsequent changes in the effects?We moved away from the power lines once he was diagnosed.

I've worked in IT and have questioned this exposure and time and again, powers above have referred to the FCC's science and stated it's safe and shut it down. So finally, having a body do real research will be great. My only concern is the timing, as I believe when the next wave of election comes and RFK is out, and the republicans loose, I think we'll see a massive regression back to the old ways. I know these scientist are hot and bothered by having all this exposure to their long standing control, so that's my only request, do it as quickly as possible and make it available as soon as possible, because the clock is ticking, you're less than a month away from loosing midterms, and if that trend continues, loosing the next election and we'll see a raging return with even more aggressive lockdowns than before. God speed.

Je suis electrosensible depuis 2020 et je ne vie plus ces tres.souffrant et svp aidez.nous

I have a friend who was highly sensitive to non-native EMFs. She would break out in a rash whenever she was around anyone who had a cell phone on. If she was near a cell tower, she'd get nauseous and experience headaches. She felt debilitated and exhausted whenever she had prolonged exposure in a city or store. She used to tell me "I'm the canary in the coal mine." Miners would bring a canary with them in the mines and if it died, they knew it was an indication of a problem with low oxygen and that they would have to leave the environment in order to survive. My friend passed away just last month. The canary has died. While there are countless studies that point to the harm that comes from non-native EMFs, RF and wireless radiation exposure, once you know someone who has been affected, you can no longer ignore the reality of the dangers they pose. Even cell phone companies admit that you shouldn't touch cell phones or keep them near the body, but it's in the fine print on inserts and most ignore this advice on a daily basis.

I am writing in response to your request and urge you to make the studies that have been conducted more available to the public so that they can change their behavior if they so choose. Have a campaign to educate/inform the public about the effects of non-native EMF exposure. But I also want to make sure you do what you can to ensure that the public is more protected by getting companies to stop installing towers without community input on their location. Cell towers, iPads, and laptops for school children are damaging them physically, mentally, and emotionally. So the first step should be to protect them, the most vulnerable.

In sum, I'd like to see greater awareness about the effects of EMFs and also more accountability/responsibility from tech companies about where they install antennas and even data centers. Community input must be insisted upon and permitted not solely on the basis of the aesthetics of the areas but because of health concerns.

. & 2. I am responding as: 3a. Type of wireless or RF/EMF sources involved (e.g., mobile phones, Wi-Fi, smart meters…)Apple phones with latest updates 3b. Nature, duration, frequency, and approximate timing (e.g., years):Tumor on thumb for a year with agonizing searing pain in the presence of cellular phones, but absolutely updated Apple phones. I have generalized EMF sensitivity for 10 years as a background with fatigue. 3c. Adverse health effect(s) experienced:Fatigue Agonizing pain Nausea and vomiting 3d. Time from first exposure to first appearance of adverse health effects; and did a change in exposure coincide with the onset of adverse effects:The change would’ve been the tumor coming on my thumb with a fungal infection and as soon as that started to be controlled, the pain totally goes away with the iPhones 3e. Was medical evaluation or treatment sought? (Optionally:) Was there a diagnosis?Yes 3f. Were steps taken to reduce or eliminate exposure, and were there subsequent changes in the effects?My home was mitigated 10 years ago. I have no Wi-Fi in the house. Everyone’s cell phone is off in my house. We are ethernet. My problem was when I went anywhere. 3g. Any supporting documentation? This includes Scientific Reports, exposure measurements, or other relevant information:Oh, we could talk for days on the metering my husband and I have done in our home. The one other wild card was installing Starlink. Plugging in the Starlink put the dirty energy in the house up to 1700! I know that is not the focus of the study, but that was a huge part of my problem until we mitigated the one plug for Starlink. Additional Details you would like to share about your experiences of adverse health effects you believe to be associated with exposure to wireless radiation or EMF's: B1a. Sources you experience as causing you Adverse Effects:Dirty energy, magnetic fields, Wi-Fi, cellular phones, especially Apple phones that are newly updated. Transformers on the powerlines, kitchen appliances. B1b. Sources you can sense, but don't seem to harm you:Before the tumor on my thumb, I would’ve said being around cell phones. But that tumor was ago agony with cell phones. B1c. Sources…

In response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure.

I am a grandmother who is concerned for the public. I’ve long been concerned with EMF radiation effects, especially for young children, like my grandchildren. Wi Fi radiation is also a major concern. I have bought EMF protection for my home and my children’s home. Honestly, I hope it works, but it was costly to buy. The smart meters are terrible for home owners because of the constant Wi-Fi going across the rooms constantly. Watch this documentary and it will show you proof why EMF radiation isn’t good and how 5G gave college students brain cancer in college because the 5 G towers were aimed at their college campus building. They all died and the 5G tower was the only common denominator. I hope their story was on this documentary. I think it was. https://youtu.be/8ZTiT9ZSg3Q?is=h6TnmG-9u4F_CY3U

I’m very concerned about long term exposure especially from the 5G they’re using now.

I support HHS taking an active role in examining the potential health and environmental effects of wireless radiation 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.

HHS needs to carefully evaluate these experiences and the scientific evidence. Also to 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 letting us voice our opinion.

See attached file by the International Commission on Electromagnetic Safety (ICEMS)

I started noticing in early 2000 that I was experiencing unusual symptoms when I would go to the larger towns that were installing the 5G towers. My first experience my body began vibrating and other people actually could feel it if they hugged me. I then began experiencing a mild headache that proceeded to get worse as the day went on. By the time I got home I was feeling as if I was getting a cold, which never came to fruition, but I was aware something was different in the environment. I fortunately live in a very rural area and currently have no towers near my house. At that time I owned a cell phone for only a couple years and by 2024, I had to get rid of it as it was causing my heart to have fluttering and my left hand that I carried it in began to swell. I now have hard wired service at my home and must avoid all larger cities in my state that have high EMF/RF frequencies. It's a horrible feeling when I do need to go to those areas as it obviously makes me ill feeling with the stimulation to my mitochondria.

Please find attached the full response from the Swedish Radiation Protection Foundation to the HHS Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure.

Our submission includes scientific evidence, references, and recommendations concerning health effects, exposure limits, the protection of the general public and vulnerable populations.

Please consider the attached document in its entirety as our formal submission with 19 supporting documents.

Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to formally submit evidence and personal testimony regarding the adverse health and biological effects of radiofrequency (RF) radiation and electromagnetic fields (EMFs), as requested by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). As a long-term advocate and the former founder and owner of a dedicated European platform for individuals affected by electromagnetic radiation (formerly betroffene-elektromagnetische-strahlung.com, recently transitioned in July 2026), I have spent over seven years documenting, analyzing, and consolidating the health complaints of citizens affected by these environmental factors. During this time, our platform was contacted by more than 350 affected individuals from all over the world. Their documented experiences demonstrate that these neurological and physical symptoms constitute a global phenomenon, affecting ordinary citizens worldwide and across borders. In response to the specific categories of your Request for Information (RFI), I submit that the biological impacts of RF exposure are measurable and verifiable. Over years of documentation, the following evidence has been compiled to substantiate these biological effects: 1. Medical and Biological Data: Objective medical reports and RF body-scan analyses showing physiological stress, neurological disruption, and specific biological anomalies corresponding with proximity to high-frequency radiation sources. 2. Technical and Investigative Documentation: Detailed evidence consisting of 2. investigative reports, environmental monitoring, video documentation, and eyewitness testimonies that track the presence of elevated EMF/RF levels and their immediate impact on human health. 3. Historical and Regulatory Context: Corroborating documentation including historical governmental research frameworks (such as legacy documentation regarding neuro-electromagnetic research) and registered public patents demonstrating the established technical capability of high-frequency fields to interact directly with human biological and neurological systems. The compiled documentation strongly suggests that current exposure thresholds do not adequately protect public…

Grok has found these health experiences, a couple of them are comments to deleted posts that I kept in as they were of interest. In #2 for example a person described a mushroom mildened their EMF sensitivity. HHS-OASH-2026-0397, health experiences found on Reddit. 1. A new Wi-Fi repeater caused headache and dizziness. They could not turn it off. https://redd.it/10ahav6 2. Comment; post removed. They believe Reishi mushroom helped, via porphyria (a blood and liver condition). Only Reishi is named. https://www.reddit.com/comments/10seusf/_/j8lwy45 3. Near power lines and an airport: hard to catch their breath, woke short of air, headache, fatigue, and trouble with memory and thinking. Fine when away. Fume cleanup failed. https://redd.it/148vgpq 4. Poor sleep with a Wi-Fi router on the other side of the wall. Better after moving their head away. https://redd.it/1w8faog 5. Lyme symptoms eased after leaving the power grid to avoid these fields. https://redd.it/1wh6czw 6. They blame radio waves for insomnia. No test. https://redd.it/e1i4jw 7. They turn the cell phone off to sleep and to work. https://redd.it/lghzts 8. High home-meter readings, blamed for headaches and thinning hair. Post removed; numbers gone. https://redd.it/ohu0ua 9. Comment on a deleted post: an earpiece tingled the ear, so they quit Bluetooth earpieces. https://www.reddit.com/comments/stwxwf/_/hx6s73u 10. Same thread: Bluetooth devices hurt, and they trust no research they found. https://www.reddit.com/comments/stwxwf/_/hxarf7b 11. A protective pendant stopped headache and dizziness. Post removed. https://redd.it/sx77i9 12. A dark, grounded bedroom built free of these fields, for sleep. https://redd.it/sz1irk 13. Some laptops and a fanless tablet, not the phone, cause pinprick feelings. Suspect a wireless chip or the power circuit. https://redd.it/1m462eu 14. Phone off for a day, felt well; sick 10 minutes after turning it on. https://redd.it/1qa93di 15. Phone on the ear: lasting pain. Uses speaker or a wired headset. Asks if Bluetooth is better. https://redd.it/1w23p6w 16. Insomnia a week after a first cell phone. Possibly coincidence. https://redd.it/12j0688 17. Asks if anyone else is…

1. & 2. I am responding as: 3a. Type of wireless or RF/EMF sources involved (e.g., mobile phones, Wi-Fi, smart meters…)Wi-Fi/Smart Meters/Mobile Phones/MM Wave Airport Scanners/Cell phone towers 3b. Nature, duration, frequency, and approximate timing (e.g., years):Since 2018 - Inability to sleep in an environment with Wi-Fi, extreme headaches, nausea. Extreme pain in legs after going through an MM Wave airport scanner inadvertently for the first and only time - I have peripheral neuropathy of my lower limbs. 3c. Adverse health effect(s) experienced:As above. 3d. Time from first exposure to first appearance of adverse health effects; and did a change in exposure coincide with the onset of adverse effects:My situation and intolerance to EMF’s was, I believe, caused by my exposure to fumes onboard aircraft which contain organophosphates. I worked for 20 years as a Flight Attendant and was acutely and chronically exposed to the chemical fumes. I have sensory issues amongst other health effects including brain injury and peripheral neuropathy as a result. I developed multiple chemical sensitivity in 2017 and EMF sensitivity in 2018. 3e. Was medical evaluation or treatment sought? (Optionally:) Was there a diagnosis?I have a diagnosis of Environmental Intolerance (Chemical and EMF’s) from my doctor. Not Idiopathic - as my doctor knows what caused it. I also have a diagnosis of Organophosphate Poisoning. 3f. Were steps taken to reduce or eliminate exposure, and were there subsequent changes in the effects?I moved to a rural area of France with minimal mobile phone signal and into an old property with thick stone walls and no near neighbours. My laptop is hardwired and Wi-Fi in the house is limited to just 30 minutes twice a day. Avoidance is the only remedy and the only way to reduce/eliminate exposure. 3g. Any supporting documentation? This includes Scientific Reports, exposure measurements, or other relevant information:I have some scientific reports, but i’m sure you have them already. I don’t have an exposure measurements - I know exposure here is minimal. I moved away in order to avoid exposure as much as possible. I live a very different lifestyle these days…

Nature, duration, frequency, and approximate timing (e.g., years):2 years, intermitant; I began experiencing numbness on my left side; at first interpreted as high blood pressure 3c. Adverse health effect(s) experienced:I began testing for high blood pressure every time my left arm or side went numb. Sometimes my blood pressure was higher than normal, other times it was not. It was very inconsistent so I suspected the numbness was not high blood pressure. 3d. Time from first exposure to first appearance of adverse health effects; and did a change in exposure coincide with the onset of adverse effects:I have been exposed to wi-fi for a long time but I began experiencing the numbness when I and the house next door to me got new internet connections with higher speed. 3e. Was medical evaluation or treatment sought? (Optionally:) Was there a diagnosis?I went to my doctor about the numbness and was told it was high blood pressure but when I monitored the numbness for myself, my blood pressure was higher than normal for less than half the time. 3f. Were steps taken to reduce or eliminate exposure, and were there subsequent changes in the effects?I noticed a big change in the frequency of my numbness in the summer when I was out working in the garden. My hands were bare, in the soil, planting and weeding. I was getting 'grounded'. It was actually then that I connected the numbness to the wi-fi. I have very little numbness when I work in the garden but in the winter, when it's not possible to dig in the soil, the frequency of numbness is much greater. 3g. Any supporting documentation? This includes Scientific Reports, exposure measurements, or other relevant information:no Additional Details you would like to share about your experiences of adverse health effects you believe to be associated with exposure to wireless radiation or EMF's:I sleep on the other side of the house from the two close internet connections. However this is not a cure as I cannot control the connection in the house next door on that side. B1a. Sources you…

• Who is the respondent?

Individual consumer

• Type of wireless technology?

Smartphone. 5G.

• What is the nature, duration, frequency and approx. timing of reported exposure?

A close relative needs their phone in their job (not a desk-job), and needs to take and make quite a lot of job-calls throughout the workday. The person used to have the smartphone close at hand placed in the left-side breast-pocket.

• What is the potential adverse health effects experienced?

Strong and intense pain in the muscles around the heart and the esophagus/sphincter when swallowing liquids. The symptoms increased in intensity and were very strong and intense after one year of exposure.

• When did the potential adverse health effects first appear in relative to when exposure began?

After approximately 4-6 months.

• Whether medical evaluation of treatment was sought?

No.

• Whether steps to reduce or eliminate exposure were taken & whether changes in adverse health effects were observed?

Yes. The person moved the smartphone to a side-pocket in the pants instead and after a couple of months (approximately three months), the pain started to decrease and after one year, the pain was gone.

• Any other info, doc, pics etc?

Thank you for providing an opportunity for people in other countries also to comment about this. It is very much appreciated.

Also, for more information in relation to the subject, I would like to refer to website:

I am submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure.

We all want EXPEDITED TRUE SFETY STUDIES completed and the results to be taken seriously and acted upon accordingly. We are electrical beings. Going from an area of lower quantity frequencies to area of higher and constant frequencies and be felt physically. Personal results are arthritis and stinging sensations in my extremities, a large decrease in deep sleep, and brain fog/forgetfulness. Study the actual prologues long-term exposure upon our physiology (rather than basing safety on behavior changes in 5 primates after short term on time exposure).

Hi,

On this website linked here are anecdotes I have collected by use of SI/LLMs. There are two tabs, one for "verified" where the models I used to search agreed on that the quote and source was retrieved right or translated right. And another tab where the sources or content needs review, for example if two LLM models disagreed on whether the information was correctly quoted. Much of the data is about symptoms people ascribe to wireless smart meters. But there are also other anecdotes such as a child reacting to Ipads or wireless projectors.

https://emf-anecdotes.grok.me/

The information can be downloaded as csv files on the website. Or viewed through the website as is.

I am hoping you can use the two tabs, two csv files, as short lists for further inspection or research.

The information is sourced from different languages but attempted summarized in English. And many of the sources are in English too.

I would have verified the remaining in "needs review", but i ran out of LLM tokens for the job unfortunately. I can help with that further if you need it, at a later time.

I hope the data will be of use.

Thank you.

Alex
