Guest guest Posted December 18, 2006 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 Ceiling fans are one of my red flags. They were not grounded in the house where I got sick and there were readings of 14 miliguass near them when they were on. Other wiring was screwed up so even when they were off there were readings of 6-8 mG. There are a couple of factors to consider. The way you feel may be related to a number of different sources. Right now, my biggest issue is the electrical current running through the couch when I sit on it. Yes 2 or 3 mG makes a huge difference and no you should not be sitting in any reading for any amount of time. You can ground the couch, move the wires, move the furniture and THEN if you are still getting bad readings or feelings, check the outlets with your Stetzer Microsurge Meter http://www.stetzerelectric.com/filters/store.html You may also have a neutral wire problem which shows up when you turn appliances or light on, the neutral wires are overload and a magnetic field will kick up. Use your Guass meter to constantly check the different situations and your body voltage meter to check how much is running through your body while you sit in different locations. THEN, check your outside sources of radio/microwave radiation (WiFi, cordless phones, and power lines, etc.) to see how much is coming in to effect your feelings. See if you narrow down the different sources first. Definitely move away from any breaker boxes, outside power lines, large appliances, etc. good luck, On Dec 18, 2006, at 5:07 AM, Aline wrote: > Hi to all and greetings from Maui. > > I am becoming increasingly aware of and bothered by EMFs but am also > bothered by the proximity of (switched off) ceiling fans.

An electric field can be emitted from the fan even when switched off. Try switching off the power supply to the fan at the fuse panel. The trifield is a good general purpose meter, but not terribly sensitive. Do you have the 100ex? That model is much more sensitive to electric fields. You can upgrade for $20. > I find using a computer pretty uncomfortable these days - I feel > impacted on the front of my body (in my 'energy centers' and on my > skin) I got myself a trifield meter and I notice that EMF readings > are negligible at the distance I sit at so I am guessing that > my body is like a conductor and the energy flows towards me when I am > near an electromagnetic field.

Welcome to the club of people who are sensitive to computers, yet the fields are negligible where you sit. The power may decrease by the square of the distance, yet the fields do go to infinity. Watch out! Once your sensitized it's very, very difficult to get better. If it hurts, lay off. Eli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 18, 2006 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 Welcome to the group, Aline! I think that some ceiling fans may produce a field even if they are switched off. Especially the ones which have remote speed controls or other fancy settings. Otherwise, you are correct that any metal parts in the fan (and in the wires leading up to the fan) can concentrate fields from the environment. Also, you shouldn't pay too much attention to your tri-field meter. It may not be measuring the frequencies or fields that you are most sensitive to, and also people who are sensitive can be more sensitive than meters! It certainly could be helpful to get rid of your metal dental work. But you should get a good dentist who takes the proper precautions (I suspect that Maui would have someone like that, as I recall there being a lot of good health food stores there). But eliminating the fillings is just the start -- you also have to get the accumulated metals out of the rest of your body. I've also had good results from nutrition and EMF protection devices, although it was a terribly long and expensive period of trial & error to determine what worked the best for me.

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2006 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 Thanks for the welcome, Marc and your reply. I had been wondering if there were other frequencies than electromagnetic. For 30 years I have experienced people's energy field as a physical force field effecting mine (as different from each other as people are different from each other). The dentist did use a rubber damn to protect from mercury ingestion but sounds like that may not be enough. I started having ringing in my ears soon after the removal of 2 very large fillings and am suspecting that there is a connection.

Ideally they have a water-cooled drill, give you a separate air-source so you're not inhaling mercury fumes, and quickly break apart the fillings so that there is a minimum drilling time. Also, a personal theory of mine is that the novocaine shots actually liberate a significant amount of mercury in the cells into the bloodstream, which can then redistribute and cause problems. One can help counter this by taking some really strong antioxidants before and after the filling removals. Marc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 18, 2006 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 Hi , Thanks for your feedback. Was still pondering your last post - and had to get off the computer and get out of the house...... Gosh, that is a high reading for a ceiling fan. That is interesting to hear what can happen with faulty wiring. There really isn't anywhere to move the couch so I am hoping to solve the problem at it's root. It's just wiring under the floor (not a box as I previously said). The readings are strongest at the floor where we have our feet and the wire presumably goes to that socket where there is a constant reading with nothing plugged in (and an electrical reading of 100 volts from wires in the same wall). Sounds like Keen could give me some pointers. We built the house and the electricians did all sorts of ridiculous things so I wouldn't be surprised if there is faulty wiring.

Definitely move away from any breaker boxes, outside power lines, large appliances, etc. good luck, I recommend that you contact Keen ck1@... an electrical specialist in Florida and talk with him. I recommend talking to him with your skeptical partner on the other phone. is very quiet and extremely pensive and accurate. He doesn't ever exaggerate and is a very rational person. He knows about all about wiring problems, sensitivities (thanks to me) and much more. Make sure you have your meters ready before the call so you can tell him what is going on. You can also book a personal appearance for only $350. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
