RE: [metals] fluorescent lights

[Guest guest]

Has anyone also considered or investigated the connection between shopping and

formaldehyde exposure? There are certain shops (often containing large amounts

of new fabric, foam etc.) that I can't stay in for too long without feeling

completely drained. I have always suspected that this relates to a high

concentration of formaldehyde (in fabric, foam, MDF/fibreboard etc.). I wonder

if perhaps my perceived reaction to formaldehyde is either aggravated or

intensified by EMF's and EMR associated with high level fluorescent lighting

and whatever other electrical and electronic appliances are used in the store.

It appears from many discussions on both of these lists that there is a

possible link between environmental poisoning (e.g. mercury) and symptoms of

illnesses such as Electrical Sensitivity, which also often seems to occur with

MCS and other 'modern' illnesses. Perhaps formaldehyde is another part of the

equation?

I've never noticed electrical sensitivity any other time so maybe it was the

combination of all the toxic stuff in stores plus just overdoing it.I hate

shopping and living on an island makes it hard to just do little shopping

errands .Try to do as much as I can in one day, and i've done this befor and

not had this happen.

Hello Lachlan,

no, I do not think so.

Although Formaldehyde is a poisonous gas, it works directly on the throat.

The feeling of drained comes in most cases from exposure to magnetic

alternating fields, as they are quite high with fluorescent lights.

There seems to be something disturbing in the light spectrum of those lamps

also, as it is with halogen lamps.

I have had chemical sensitivity for nearly 20 years and can say for sure

that ANY chemical exposure can result in a drop in energy - it depends

upon the individual's constitution as to which chemicals and how much

exposure as to the effects.

Hello ,

of course you are quite right.

Most persons with MCS (multiple chemical sensitivity) react heavily to all

kinds of chemicals.

Most of them do not visit shops, let alone they come on the streets.

A large number are outcastst of the society (most prople will not understand

them) and they lay on bed.

The unfortune fact is there, that they are also exposed to all kind of

electromagnetic fields, which detoriates their condition further.

MCS people are living in a *hell on earth*, literally.

My former posting was addressed to Lachlan Mudge, who is electrosensitive,

but does not have MCS, as far as I know.
