Re: how did you get your EMS diagnosis?

[Guest guest]

Well, it's not really an officially-recognized condition, so

I doubt there are many doctors around who would be willing to

diagnose it. I self-diagnosed myself after eliminating

all of the more commonly known conditions. It's pretty

simple, really -- if you react to a computer, a laptop,

a TV, a telephone, florescent lights, and power lines

in the middle of nowhere, but are fine at a park or

at the beach, then that's EMF sensitivity!

I diagnoses myself after many docs told me I needed psychiatric help. Husband

put me in the psychiatric hospital too. I thought ok the psychiatrists will see

that I am not crazy & validate what I am saying. Not even close. Labeled me

delusional & have been fighting the stigma ever since.

 I didn't understand it until a friend with CHS (MCS) hooked me up with a

friend of hers that also had EHS. She pointed out that it could be electrical. I

was in this new house & removed all chemicals. Had no mold.  I was so

distraught because I didn't know what I was reacting to.

 

Had a Building Biologist come to the house & tested the house & told me of all

the cell antennas I could see from my back window only about a quarter of a mile

away. Not even. At the high school.  Said the RF was 1,000 times higher than a

body should be absorbing.

 

In a nutshell!  Loni

A neurologist I saw also wanted to send me to a psychiatrist. I would

have given it a try if that psychiatrist was close by. But it was more

than 20 miles from here, too far for me to drive anyway. Not that I

thought I needed a psychiatrist. With hindsight I'm glad I didn't go,

for just as you I might have been diagnosed with all kinds of things

that just aren't true. And you never get rid of that stigma.

It was July of 09 when it started, and I thought my tongue was just feeling

strange when I used the computer . I was on it at least 9-11 hours a day. I was

under stress at work, my mcs was worsening due to many things mainly the air

quality since I was in an agricultural valley, it was loaded with pesticides.

Once while leaving work I was overwhelmed with them too. Within a few more

months when I used a laptop an electrical surge went up my arm, my heart started

to race. I felt uncomfortable using that particular computer. But, I had too

much going on, I didn't pay attention. After I was overcome by cologne at work,

I was so sick I stayed home and joined mcs groups. Prior to that I really

didn't want to be associated with any group. I just wanted to be careful, and

live life. On the Canary Report I read about electrical sensitivity. Within a

few months, when I was laid off of work, and a significant person in my life

passed away I was not able to be around wifi, and realized what I had. I have

been very blessed with family and friends who have been understanding for the

most part. My kids haven't been able to really deal with it, since they lost

their dad at the same time that I realized what was going on with me. So it has

been very hard.

It took me a while to figure out I was ES...

At my first job I did notice I always had a lot of stress, I thought well that's

normal, you want to do well... In the evening when most people had left and shut

off their pc I started feeling better, I thought well you're more

relaxed with less people around you...

Then one day in the morning, suddenly electricity went off in the entire office

building for at least 30 minutes, and immediately I felt much better/relaxed in

the same location and with the colleagues I normally was stressed with! That

made me think a bit.

One year later, I had to move out of my house (I moved to the city close to the

police). I'm still not sure I got sick there because of paint or because of emf

(from the police closeby).

Later I was noticing differences I was better on some places... And it was only

then that I started googling on something I almost had never heard of sth like

electrical sensitivity...

When 3G was launched it was pretty obvious I got even sick when driving in the

Netherlands for a short while, immediately feeling better here in Belgium...

With bio-resonance and kinesiology tests my ES was also confirmed later...

I can imagine if you're less ES then it will take you longer to find out you're

ES... Well we're all ES in some degree...

I guess at first you don't want to know it, you're in denial, I think our mind

is " too powerful " to give in that our health could be harmed by sth ridiculous

as emf!

Psychiatrists, yes well they can find and explain anything if they start

digging!

Neurologists are very busy here in Belgium. I think some of them are happy to

send you to psychiatrists to take off the workload... There was sth on the tv

(ES documentary) about so many people recently going to neurologists with

migraine, tinnitis,... I'm certain this is at least partially caused because of

more and more emf...

My story is a long one so I will make it as short as possible. I first was sick

with ES 20 years ago when so little was said about it. I started looking more

and more at the power tower that was only 30 yards from my house and began

wondering if that had anything to do with all my strange symptoms that I was

suffering. I was in denial at first as I really didn't want to have to move in

order to feel better. Everyone back then just thought I was nuts to think that

power lines could harm you. Finally about 10 years ago I discovered the book by

Lucienda Grant that described this strange illness that I had as " Electrical

Sensitivity " That was the turning point. I could hardly put the book down. I had

all the strange symptoms she described! It became clear to me why I felt better

while at work at a very stressful job than I did in my own home! Now the puzzle

was solved!

I enjoyed reading other shares on this topic. Interesting one.

Thanks,

Cheryl

Immediately? Sounds like it took 10 years...

With me it took about 6 months to figure out I was reacting to

computers, and then another 6 months to learn that the

condition had a name (Electrical Sensitivity)

Marc

[Guest guest]

I didn't react to anything specific, which made it very hard to find out

why I got so sick. I think that I get sick much more of RF than

electricity. But I'm still in the stage that I'm trying to figure out

the details. But I don't notice any more symptoms when I'm at the

computer or cooking at the electric stove. Still grounding myself makes

a difference, so electricity does play a role in it.

I had never heard of EMS, but searched the Internet for many hours to

find something that explained all the physical problems I had. EMS not

only matched all the symptoms, but also the time line. It just can't be

anything else. Now I still need to find things that help protecting me.

Yes, I've the power go out at work too -- feels great!

I already knew I was ES at that point, so feeling great didn't

surprise me. :-)

Marc

[Guest guest]

That is correct - it did take me almost 10 years to figure it all out. I feel so

dumb looking back but back then there was so little info on this and I didn't

have internet access. I didn't want to believe that it was the power lines that

were causing it. However, once I admitted it it gave me new hope. I figured if I

moved I would get better.

That is so interesting because several years ago I suddenly felt 100% better for

about 2-3 days. I thought that I was " cured " . We did have power at the house.

However, it is possible that for those 2-3 days the power tower near my home

wasn't generating electricity for some reason and that it was being re-routed.

Any thoughts on this? Has anyone else experienced sudden relief without any

obvious explanation? Curious...

You are probably not the only person who suffered that long before

finding out what's the problem. I attributed many of my symptoms to my

CFS for several years. Till I got such bad muscle spasms that I couldn't

deny any longer that there was something else going on. Then it still

took me about a year of many tests and many doctors' visits before I

started to search on line and found what I needed to know. Still it

seems that my body reacts quite differently to these things than with

most of you. It seems that one of the first symptoms is ususally

headache, but I rarely have a headache... But my body has always done

things differently. I'm a doctor's nightmare, because my body doesn't

make any sense.

Hi Rixta,

Actually, like you, I am not one to have headaches. My head does feel funny

after being on the computer for a long time. But this just started recently and

it isn't really a headache. My first symptom was non-stop, severe colds for the

first 1 1/2 years I was sick with ES. This was no doubt due to a comprised

immune system from metal poisoning which I later discovered that I had. But I

couldn't figure out why I had this.

I can sure relate to what you said about having a body that does things

differently!

Thanks for your response.

Hi, Cheryl,

 

I had sudden relief once after lightning struck nearby.  That lasted several

days.  My guess was the lightning hit and knocked out something local that

bothers me.  I have also had sudden relief when the power has gone out.

Wow, that is so interesting about the lightening! Thanks for sharing.

I haven't noticed the sudden relief when power has gone out as you and others

Hi, Rixta,

 

I went decades before figuring it out.  I have had some symptoms of ES since

early childhood and got ES in particular places/ situations from the time I was

at least 5.  I stopped watches from the age of 5 or 6 (whenever I got my first

watch).  When I was in my late teens, doctors started saying how I affected

their electrocardiographs badly.  I had been quite ill from early childhood,

but doctors didn't seem to notice much, except I had " failure to thrive " and

almost constant swollen glands.  (I finally got a dx for what caused

this--celiac disease--at age 49.)

I began to suspect electrical problems in my body as causing some of my

symptoms in my teens.  I also became more and more environmentally intolerant

as time went on.  I occasionally wondered if radio waves affected me because I

sometimes felt very weak after I listened to the radio.  But pretty much I

thought my internal wiring was faulty, not that emfs outside me were to blame. 

(I also had to be careful not to " fry " electrical things--light bulbs,

electronics, watches,....)

 

I searched unsuccessfully for medical conditions which would cause this for

years.  In my late 30s/ early 40s, I began noticing more and more places which

were affecting me each year.  I found this forum in my early 50s (2003, I

think) and by that time I was sure I had a form of ES. In 2006, after a

pesticide exposure, I became very ill with ES for 3 years. I am now less

reactive again, after doing various therapies I have previously mentioned at

this forum.

My 2 cents on the subject,

Diane

Wow, that's a pretty extreme situation. And in my humble opinion it's

strange that no doctor picked up that you were so " charged " yourself. If

you influence or even blow electrical equipment, that should give a

strong sign to doctors. But well, most of them still have the attitude

that if their tests don't show up anything there's nothing wrong with

you. But I always say that if the tests don't show up anything, then the

only correct conclusion is that the tests are negative. Which can mean

that the patient isn't sick, or it can mean that the right tests aren't

available. But most doctors automatically stick with the first.:-(

early childhood and got ES in particular places/ situations from the time I was

at least 5. I stopped watches from the age of 5 or 6 (whenever I got my first

watch). When I was in my late teens, doctors started saying how I affected

their electrocardiographs badly. I had been quite ill from early childhood, but

doctors didn't seem to notice much, except I had " failure to thrive " and almost

constant swollen glands. (I finally got a dx for what caused this--celiac

disease--at age 49.)

time went on. I occasionally wondered if radio waves affected me because I

sometimes felt very weak after I listened to the radio. But pretty much I

thought my internal wiring was faulty, not that emfs outside me were to blame.

(I also had to be careful not to " fry " electrical things--light bulbs,

electronics, watches,....)

and by that time I was sure I had a form of ES. In 2006, after a pesticide

exposure, I became very ill with ES for 3 years. I am now less reactive again,

after doing various therapies I have previously mentioned at this forum.

Hi, Rixta, 

 

Most doctors could be brain dead, imo.  lol  The funniest thing about me

nearly blowing the electrographs was one doctor actually told me

disgustedly and in an accusatory voice that I nearly blew his machine!  Like

as if I did it on purpose!  lol  Never gave it a second thought that, gee, she

must have something very hinky going on for that to happen!  Nope, you woulda

thought, but no.  Only one doctor out of ?dozens?--a neurologist who did ECG

and an EEG on me, thought to even give me a sign this was REALLY abnormal.  (I

think that's the name of the test--the casket type bed you lay in with

electrodes on and then they shock you all over).  I had that test from 3

different doctors and only that one doc ever said, " Gee!  That is weird; I

wonder what is going on with you? "   The doctor who " got it " said I " obviously "

had a condition for which they had no reading parameters for YET. And went on to

tell me not to give up, but to come back

for further testing every 5 years till someone had a clue what was wrong with

me.

 

I once told a doctor that alot of doctors must themselves have psychiatric

problems because that is their first avenue of choice when they cannot diagnose

something correctly.  (He wanted me to see a psychiatrist, and when I said I

had and that the psychiatrist thought I was fine, except that I had an undxed

illness; his reply was, " Well you know how crazy psychiatrists are! "   !!!)  I

told him, he should see how crazy medical doctors look from my side of the

table.  I could literally write a book of crazy things doctors said and did to

me while I was trying to get dxed with celiac disease.  If I didn't have ES and

MCS, I would volunteer to be a stand-up comedian at doctors' conventions. 

lol  Wonder who would be laughing then?

 

Don't even get me started!  lol

Diane

I was having all these symptoms. The Doctors couldn't find anything wrong. I was

unable to sleep for about 6 years. I started getting insomnia when I first moved

in this house. I would sleep for about 2 or 3 hours a night, and not in a row.

Then my body started to buzz. It was off and on then the switched stayed on. I

killed my watch batteries in a few hours. Same with cell phones. I couldn't

touch them for long before they would go dead. Many other things, I could write

and book.

The Electric company sent a flier in the bill about 5 years ago. It was on EMF.

I looked it up. I have a lot of symptoms for ES. The more I learned, the more I

just knew that this is my problem.

Every year I go to Mexico for 5 days, on the beach, with kids from a mission. I

am one of the cooks. There is very little electricity there. I start to get

better when I am away from it. When I come back home, within an hour or so I am

full blown ill again. The only time I've felt good since 1998 is when I am away

from the electricity. I don't need a Doctor to tell me what is wrong with me,but

My Doctor does believes that I have a problem with the electricity. He told me

to move to the mountains. Less emf up there.
