Electrosensitivity is not well accepted by government authorities - perhaps because there are potentially unlimited public health liabilities. Fortunately a few courts are starting to award compensation.
I knew almost nothing about electrosensitivity until a mobile phone tower was erected on the top of the next building - 30 meters away on the same level as my desk. Public exposure standards to such towers are usually based on transient exposure - walking past - rather than sitting for 8 hours a day a short distance away.
So I had a range of interesting symptoms on that side of the body - ear ache, headache, shoulder pain, TMJ pain, tinnitus, nausea and blood in the urine. Fortunately all of these symptoms diminished (other than tinnitus) when I moved to another building.
Since then I have discovered dirty electricity - mainly from low quality solar panel inverters and led light rectifiers. The dirty electricity generates RF radiation from house wiring systems. Also I have to sit further from the computer monitor and lift my hand from the mouse because of electric fields.
I was ok before the phone tower exposure.
Now 5G is cranking up locally. 5G goes up to millimeter radiation - as used in airport screening of human bodies.
Many people suffer from electrosensitivity without knowing. For example, my supervisor at work turned out to have first had tinnitus the same year as he owned his first mobile phone. Sitting across from me with much more exposure to the same tower - after a month decided he needed a hearing aid. Such is life.
As long as people do not think about their symptoms they will not protect themselves. The usual treatment is dietary to reduce allergies (similar biological mechanism) and reduction of exposure. Exposure meters are important.
I found only one electrosensitivity doctor in a city of 2 million! My employer did not believe in such things so I retired.
Here is a BBC doc on electrosensitivity. www.bbc.com/news/av/stories-51281856
In Australia the government body that sets safe exposure standards tells us :
Do not use our information:
- to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease
- as a substitute for the advice of a health professional as it relates to your individual circumstances
