As do I. But no one ever wants to believe you. If I am in close proximity of a WiFi router as example: I get block-headed and pulsing-zap feeling above my ears. Hearing deteriorates causing my hearing to go all tinny.
I've mitigated it by turning my WiFi router transmit power to half which helps but doesn't help in office environments where the router is mounted above or if I am round at someones home.
- davidy123 6y agoYes, I notice the tinny hearing effect, and something specific to the sensitive nasal membranes (basically my nostrils feel like they've dried up). I have also turned down the power of any transmitters that are close to where I sit. But I'm also a nerd so am surrounded by equipment, with at least eight pieces of wireless equipment in my office. A part of me wonders if by denying this sensitivity, I'm shutting that sense out, regardless it still has a background effect. If it exists at all, which is the other problem (I can at least claim to be a critical neurotic).
