It is real, for me. I’m not going to debate you on this topic because I’ve tested it every way I can to rule out placebo. I am not woo woo crank and I approached this with skepticism and rigor. But if you want to investigate, more, look at voltage gated calcium ion channels like the l type calcium channels and TRPV1 channels. In my opinion, people who have EHS will have changes in these genes that make them more susceptible to the electromagnetic waves causing calcium influx into the nerve cells. it just happens to be a coincidence that these same genetics will cause mood disorders. That is because mood disorders are environmental diseases. And I have been in psychological and psychiatric treatment for over 30 years. I think I have not hashed this through with my therapist and doctors is just an assumption on your part. I will say you need to see a therapist. If you think there’s any certainty that EHS does not exist, because that’s as bold as me, saying that it does exist.

Sorry to hear about your health problems, they sound very real to me. >I’ve tested it every way I can to rule out placebo. I'm genuinely curious, could you tell me a little more about how you did that?

  Thanks. So I have two meters. One that measures radio frequencies up to 8 GHz. And I have another meter that measures the frequency EMFs like from households and that measures both electric and magnetic field separately. The simplest thing I do is not to measure an area before I am in that area for an extended period of time. So say if I am sleeping in a hotel, I see how I feel and how I sleep, and sleep probably the biggest effect EMFs have on me so it is a good marker. For example, if I stay at a friends house and sleep over, I’ll see how I sleep and I’ll take a measurement in the morning. I cannot tell you how many hundreds of times I’ve done this, but the correlation comes out every time, with household EMF the higher the electric field, I sleep in the worse my sleep is. The higher the the magnetic field the more pain I have and the more depression I have. So the fields seem to be having different effects on me. With Radio frequency EMFs I do the same thing, but I have a few other tools since my meter does not measure over 8Ghz I really can’t tell how much 5G there is so there’s an app called “Coverage?“ that used to supplement the reading with my meter. Radio frequency EMF nearly always make me manic and psychotic and my insomnia is horrible and my anger threshold is pretty much zero. my tinnitus will also become louder after a certain amount of time but that time seems to vary. I also get a lot of bladder pain. Since for me, the symptoms do not start right away. It’s difficult to tell in an area if I’m going to be bothered by it unless it’s really strong. Since I’m homeless and drive around the whole country, I’ve been to places where EMFS were absolutely zero and I was literally cured of my mood disorder and insomnia, and where it was off the charts like in Phoenix where I have to take so much Klonopin just to drive through the city. They’re probably the most important times I found where the times when I thought I was in a high EMF area and I slept great and it turns out I was in some weird pocket of low EMF exposure. For example, there is a park in the town that’s at a low level and it’s surrounded by trees. When I look it up on the Coverage? app, most of the 5G is gone. It sure enough when I took out my meter. The readings were exceptionally low. I am not immediately bothered by things like using my cell phone, but the fact that my tinnitus is worse in my left ear where I use my phone, my whole life I don’t think is a coincidence. But recently, and this is probably not as good as a placebo, but it sure told me a lot, I had a 24 hour Holter monitor put on because I have really weird blood pressure. They call it libel hypertension. I vary a lot during the day and actually at night it becomes really really low. So this time when I had the Holter monitor on, I decided to go to places with high EMF and low EMF. And see what my readings were. Sure enough it correlated. My blood pressure was much higher like 160/98 in places with higher EMF. I also noticed something strange that I never realized before but my heart rate was lower when I was in high magnetic field and it was higher in an Area with high frequency EMF. I just want other people reading this to understand I’m not some person running around trying to avoid EMS all the time. I mean they make my life shit but they’re not going to kill me. I’ve lived with my issues for 35 years and they haven’t killed me yet. If you met me, you wouldn’t see some better call Saul character that’s for sure.

    If you ever get the chance you might like to camp out in a radio quiet zone there's at least one in the US - much of W.Australia is quiet (simply due to having a low population outside of the main city), and there's always the Murchison inner zone: https://www.industry.gov.au/science-technology-and-innovation/space-and-astronomy/co-hosting-ska-telescope/australian-radio-quiet-zone-wa https://www.industry.gov.au/science-technology-and-innovatio...

      Yes, I’ve been to Green bank, West Virginia, in the “quiet zone”. The peace my body felt when I was there was nothing less than incredible. I’ve also found places in Nebraska, Montana, and Arizona, that are essentially radio free as well. But they are much more remote, of course.

    That is all confirmation bias and psychosomatic symptoms.

If someone put you into a sealed room and then turned a 5G cell phone access point on and off on the other side of the wall you wouldn't be able to tell the difference. You are suffering from delusions. If your healthcare providers are telling you anything different then they aren't helping you.

  Wow, your scientific reasoning is great. How much power is the access point using? How many people are using the access point? Is data being actively transferred on the access point? Do you mean 5G like in 5 GHz or 5G like in 8 to 36 GHz? How long does one need to sit there to feel the effect? Does mid band 5G pass through walls? Numerous researchers have already come out with the issues and the difficulties of testing for EHS and they need to test it in the real world. And I agree, there are probably more people who think they have EHS than people who do.

    Those are just cases with no proven causation. Show me a randomized controlled trial with multiple subjects. Persisting in delusional beliefs is not a path to health.
