Hi dr. Doyon.

It´s a very relevant article. I believe that it could be the cause of the

invisibility of the sindrome. But all of you explain are cuantificable and

measurable, what is the problem then?

sorry for may bad englih

thank you

Are Microwaves a/the Major Causal Factor in CFS/ME?

The evidence:

1. The symptoms of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome mimic those of what the

Russians have termed " Radio Wave Illness " but also known

as " Microwave Sickness. "

2. Outbreaks of " Chronic Fatigue Syndrome " or " Yuppie Flu " suddenly

became widespread in the mid 80s just as commercial cellular phone

networks were being set up in the United States and other parts of the

world.

3. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and a number of other similar syndromes

(Autism, ADHD, Alzheimer's, etc.) increased exponentially in the early

1990s with the advent and spread of digital (2G) cellular phone

technology.

4. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Autism, and ADHD are found to be more

prevalent in countries with a plethora of cell phone networks and

electrosmog present while being just about absent in those countries

with few like Myanmar, Nepal, Bhutan, and Laos which have been late to

implement cell phone technology. (These disease states are also

extremely rare among the Amish - who due to religious beliefs do not

use electricity.)

5. Microwaves have been shown in studies to induce Oxidative Damage

leading to a decrease in Super Oxide Dimutase (SOD), catalase,

glutathione, CoQ10 along with evidence of increased byproducts of

oxidative stress to cell membranes, MDA. Oxidative damage has been

found to be a major factor in CFS and people with CFS consistently

found to be depleted in the above body's natural antioxidents.

6. Exposure to microwaves and other EMFs is known to abnormally

affect calcium flux into and out of cells. This is also a abnormality found

in people with CFS/ME.

7. Mitochondria Disfunction - shown to be induced by microwave

exposure - is also an abnormality found in CFS/ME.

8. Red blood cells (erythrocytes) are altered and their count decreased

by exposure to microwave radiation. Red blood cells are responsible for

transporting oxygen to and carbon dioxide away from cells in the brain

and other organs of the body. Lack of oxygen to the brain and other

organs can result in brain fog, inability to concentrate, dizziness, and

nausea - symptoms found in CFS; they are also interestingly found in

altitude sickness due to hypoxia or a lack of oxygen being transported to

the tissues in the brain and other organs.

9. Microwaves have been shown in studies to induce a decrease in the

numbers of Natural Killer (NK) cells. Low numbers of NK Cells are found

in People With Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (PWC), and are thought to be

responsible for the reactivation of viral and other infections found in

PWC.

10. In workers occupationally exposed long-term to microwaves a lower

value of T-helper/T-suppressor (T4/T8) ratio were found. PWC have a

lower than normal ratio of T4/T8.

11. EMF exposure has been shown to effect an increase in viruses,

bacteria, mold, parasites, and yeast in the blood of the human host.

These pathogens are all commonly found in PWC.

12. Microwaves have been shown in studies to induce " subliminal " stress

causing the adrenals to excrete more cortisone and adrenaline

eventually leading to adrenal exhaustion. Adrenal exhaustion is a major

factor in CFS.

13. Studies have shown a decrease 5-HT in the blood of those exposed

to microwaves. 5-HT is a precursor to the production of serotonin. Low

levels of serotonin have been linked to anxiety and depression. Anxiety

and depression are symptoms commonly found in People With CFS

(PWC).

14. Microwaves are known to induce a decrease in norepinephrine

levels. Norepinephrine is essential for control of the autonomous

nervous system. The autonomous nervous system is known to be

affected in people with CFS - and in Japan, people with CFS (PWC) are

now often also diagnosed as having the now extremely common

Autonomous Nervous System Disorder (jiritsushinkeishichosho).

Norepinephrine is also connected with short-term memory disturbances

and depression, both of which are found in PWC.

15. Melatonin production is altered by exposure to microwaves.

Melatonin is an antioxidant necessary for sleep. Melatonin is believed to

be altered in CFS with irregular sleep patterns and insomnia symptoms

associated with CFS.

16. Dopamine levels are also known to be affected by microwave

radiation exposure. PWC have been found to often have low levels of

dopamine with decreased dopamine being linked to depression, a

symptoms also found in PWC.

17. Decreases in the hormone Acetylcholine - known to be induced by

exposure to EMR - is an abnormality also found in CFS/ME.

18. People with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome usually feel better at night (in

spite of sleep problems) - when there are less people using their cell

phones and hence less electrosmog.

19. Some EMF frequencies have been shown to induce restlessness.

PWC often complain of restlessness and many have a condition called

restless leg syndrome (RLS).

20. It has been documented that people who have had a cell phone

tower installed near their homes suddenly start having the following

symptoms: headaches, dizziness, inability to concentrate, memory

problems, fatigue, worsening vision, swollen lymph nodes, nausea, and

decreased appetite. All these symptoms have been found in people with

CFS.

21. It has been found in CFS (and Autism) via SPECT scans that there is

decreased blood flow to the brain. Studies have shown that

electromagnetic fields (EMF), like those emitted by cell phones, alter

regional cerebral blood flow.

22. Microwaves have been shown to alter blood coagulation. People with

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome often have a coagulation dysfunction.

23. PWC often suffer from allergies. Allergies involve the production of

histamine by mast cells. Microwaves have been known to turn on mast

cells to produce more histamine and other EMFs have been to shown to

actually increase the number of mast cells in the body. Microwaves have

also been found to increase IgE antibodies in people with atopic eczema.

24. Low Blood Pressure (hypotension) is known to be caused by

microwave exposure and it is also a symptom found in CFS/ME.

25. Microwaves are also known to adversely affect the heart. People

with CFS usually go on to develop heart problems in the later stages of

their illness.

26. Studies have shown an adverse effect of microwaves on the eyes.

PWC often complain of problems with their eyes and vision deterioration.

27. It is known that microwaves and other EMR alter the pineal gland's

production of melatonin and serotonin which - among other actions -

regulate the body's biocycles. People with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

usually have a dysfunctional pineal gland.

28. Nitric Oxide buildup - a byproduct of microwave exposure - is also

found in CFS.

29. An opening of the Blood Brain Barrier (BBB) - shown to be induced

by microwave radiation exposure - is also found in PWC/ME.

30. Six thousand German doctors - many specializing in Environmental

Medicine - have signed the Freidburger Appeal - after the government

failed to act - since they have noticed a correlation between a

microwave exposure by cell phones and cell phone towers and a

number of symptoms, many of which are found in CFS/ME.

31. There have been a number of anecdotal accounts from PWC/ME

who have cured themselves or eliminated many of their symptoms by

reducing their exposure to or removing themselves from an

electromagnetic environment.

Having said that I think that all this evidence is pretty substantial. Isn't

it

time for good people to stand up and say something in numbers, to

stand up and do something together?

" Somehow these dangers must be brought into the open so forcefully

that the entire population of the world is made aware of them. Scientists

must begin to ask and seek answers tot he questions raised in this

chapter, regardless of the effect on their careers [emphasis mine].

These energies are too dangerous to me entrusted forever to politicians,

military leaders, and their lapdog researchers. " (Becker, 1985, p. 328)

Hence, in examining the pieces of the puzzle called CFS and connecting

those pieces to the research on the effects of microwave radiation and

other EMR, the overwhelming evidence presented in this paper seems to

answer the question, " Are microwaves and other EMR a causal factor in

CFS/ME? " with a definite and reverberating " Yes. "

It shall be interesting to see how those who make their living through

the business and politics of denial, deciet, deception, will try to spin the

facts. The truth of the matter is that the present ambient level of EMR in

our environment is dangerous and is making too many of us sick. It is

time we moved from denial to acceptance, from ignorance to

awareness, and apathy to action.

This is really interesting, and scary. Has anyone in this group tried

some of the devices that supposedly shield us from EMF's?

Zaccolini,

Hi! Thanks for your reply! I am one of the few people who no longer

have CFS thanks to me figuring out that it was indeed the microwaves

that were weakening my immune system, depleting my body's

antioxidants and so on. The problem was many people would not believe

my - anecdotal - story so I started to do the research. And here it

is! The cell phone industry is very very powerful. Ethical

researchers that have gone out and told the truth about the dangers

have had their funding cut and have been forced to leave their

positions. On the other hand, there are many unethical researchers

out there bought by the cell phone industry to tell you how safe

these things are. One of these researchers who had his funding cut

and was forced to leave his position was Dr. O. Becker, twice

nominated for the Nobel Prize, and author of two books - " The Body

Electric " and " Cross Currents " both of which outline the dangers of

EMR. Dr. Carlo who ran a multimillion dollar research program for the

cell phone industry between 1993 and 1996 finally concluded and went

public that this technology is extremely dangerous. He has had death

threats on his life and his house has been burnt down.

The cell phone industry knows that it is making people sick and I

even heard that the people over at Qualcomm even have their homes

shielded against the microwave radiation.

Dr. Carlo is also a lawyer and recently has won a multimillion dollar

law suit for a woman who developed a brain tumor from using cell

phones. This is the first time that this has happened and has set a

precedent.

I believe we - those who are suffering from CFS, autism, adhd, and

other immune disorders - should now have enough evidence for a

multibillion dollar class action suit against the cell phone

industry's criminal activities.

I also suspect that the cell phone industry pays a lot of these so-

called CFS experts/researchers to keep you barking up the wrong tree.

Others are probably just afraid to say anything.

Hi ,

I Think, That microwaves it´s the cause of certain type of CFs, but

the symptoms of the disease are related from hipocrates,

for that reason the increase of cases from 80´s

Asunto: Re: Are Microwaves a/the Major Causal Factor in

CFS/ME?

Zaccolini,

Hi! Thanks for your reply! I am one of the few people who no longer

have CFS thanks to me figuring out that it was indeed the microwaves

that were weakening my immune system, depleting my body's

antioxidants and so on. The problem was many people would not believe

my - anecdotal - story so I started to do the research. And here it

is! The cell phone industry is very very powerful. Ethical

researchers that have gone out and told the truth about the dangers

have had their funding cut and have been forced to leave their

positions. On the other hand, there are many unethical researchers

out there bought by the cell phone industry to tell you how safe

these things are. One of these researchers who had his funding cut

and was forced to leave his position was Dr. O. Becker, twice

nominated for the Nobel Prize, and author of two books - " The Body

Electric " and " Cross Currents " both of which outline the dangers of

EMR. Dr. Carlo who ran a multimillion dollar research program for the

cell phone industry between 1993 and 1996 finally concluded and went

public that this technology is extremely dangerous. He has had death

threats on his life and his house has been burnt down.

The cell phone industry knows that it is making people sick and I

even heard that the people over at Qualcomm even have their homes

shielded against the microwave radiation.

Dr. Carlo is also a lawyer and recently has won a multimillion dollar

law suit for a woman who developed a brain tumor from using cell

phones. This is the first time that this has happened and has set a

precedent.

I believe we - those who are suffering from CFS, autism, adhd, and

other immune disorders - should now have enough evidence for a

multibillion dollar class action suit against the cell phone

industry's criminal activities.

I also suspect that the cell phone industry pays a lot of these so-

called CFS experts/researchers to keep you barking up the wrong tree.

Others are probably just afraid to say anything.

peace

Not to minimize microwaves, but didn't the illness which came to be

called " CFS " really start to go ballistic back in the 1970's?

According to the Freiburger appeal, the pulsed microwaves they

implicate weren't introduced until 1992.

Their model projects that " Pregnant women, children, adolescents,

elderly and sick people are especially at risk " , which is strikingly

opposite to the demographics of the CFS outbreaks at Incline and

Yerington, but I suppose would be compatible with Dr Bell's pediatric

outbreak at Lyndonville.

I think it's probably not a good idea for the human race to conduct

this microwave 'experiment' with no fallback plan, should it turn out

the way the evidence suggests - but it still looks like our little

CFS problem may have predated this one.

If someone can get themselves better by avoiding microwaves, I'm all

for it.

-

" On the basis of our daily experiences, we hold the current mobile

communications technology (introduced in 1992 and since then globally

extensive) and cordless digital telephones (DECT standard) to be

among the fundamental triggers for this fatal development.

One can no longer evade these pulsed microwaves. They heighten the

risk of already-present chemical/physical influences, stress the

body's immune system, and can bring the body's still-functioning

regulatory mechanisms to a halt. Pregnant women, children,

adolescents, elderly and sick people are especially at risk

Hi -- I'm not denying your story, or your cure, but there has to be other

influences

depending on the person -- because almost EVERYONE has cell phones, or works on

computers, etc., yet only a small fraction develop CFS/ME, you know?

It certainly may be a big piece of the puzzle for some, but I don't feel it's

THE cause -- and

I'm assuming you don't either? :)

Didn't you take other supplements -- chinese herbs, etc.???

Thanks

Oh...one more thing. I have a friend who lives right next to a huge power

station -- in fact

his balcony looks out on the tower, and the towers block his view of the city.

He's lived

there for 9 years -- and has tons of energy.

Now he may become ill in a different way -- maybe cancer, or whatever -- but

then again,

he may not...

My understanding is that it started to go " ballistic " around 1984. Of

course, the military has been increasingly been using microwaves/radar

since WW2 with an increasing level in the 70s which would easily

explain what you are talking about. There were obviously increases in

the 90s when the technology went from Analog (1G) to Digital (2G).

Now, we are looking at 4G technology though most third world countries

are still using 2G.

The fact is is that there have been microwave relay stations

crisscrossing the country for a long time with the very potential for

spilloff happening in many rural areas. This has now gradually

being/been replaced by Fiber Optics.

Hi Dan,

I have never said it is the only factor and if you read the title this is very

clear. When someone uses the word " factor " it implies that there are

indeed other factors involved. The question I am asking here is " Are

Microwaves a/the Major Causal Factor in CFS? " I am NOT saying " Do

microwaves alone cause CFS? "

But if you do the research - which I am sure you have - nothing can

completely explain all the abnormalities and symptoms in CFS - except

for microwave and other EMR radiation. While chemicals and pollutants

have increased in our environment nothing has increased in line with

CFS as the ambient level of EMR in our environment.

And what has been termed CFS is a compilation of symptoms and

abnormalities - in spite of the fact that there are indeed a number of

markers that clearly indicate whether or not one has this dis-ease.

Why do you think the CDC officially made the diagnosis of CFS so

difficult in the early 90s right after the insurance companies came out

with a memo stating that they would go bankrupt if the numbers of CFS

keep on increasing like they were? And why do you think it is so difficult

now for people to get a diagnosis of CFS?

For example, 42 million Americans take sleeping pills because they

suffer from insomnia - one of the major symptoms of CFS. Yet they

don't know why they can't sleep!

So naturally if you have a lot of metals and chemicals in your body you

are going to be more affected. Naturally, if you are genetically disposed

you are going to be more affected. Naturally, if you sit in front of a

computer all day and use cell phones you are going to be more

affected. Naturally, if there is a cell phone tower near your home you

are going to be more affected. Naturally, if you live in a city you are

going to be more affected.

People are being affected and getting sick from this whether they are

diagnosed with CFS or not.

for microwave and other EMR radiation. While chemicals and pollutants

have increased in our environment nothing has increased in line with

CFS as the ambient level of EMR in our environment.

And what has been termed CFS is a compilation of symptoms and

abnormalities - in spite of the fact that there are indeed a number of

markers that clearly indicate whether or not one has this dis-ease.

Why do you think the CDC officially made the diagnosis of CFS so

difficult in the early 90s right after the insurance companies came out

with a memo stating that they would go bankrupt if the numbers of CFS

keep on increasing like they were? And why do you think it is so difficult

now for people to get a diagnosis of CFS?

For example, 42 million Americans take sleeping pills because they

suffer from insomnia - one of the major symptoms of CFS. Yet they

don't know why they can't sleep!

So naturally if you have a lot of metals and chemicals in your body you

are going to be more affected. Naturally, if you are genetically disposed

you are going to be more affected. Naturally, if you sit in front of a

computer all day and use cell phones you are going to be more

affected. Naturally, if there is a cell phone tower near your home you

are going to be more affected. Naturally, if you live in a city you are

going to be more affected.

People are being affected and getting sick from this whether they are

diagnosed with CFS or not.

So the question is do you want to keep on barking up the wrong tree or

do you want to do something about this? I think there is enough

evidence out there for a multi-billion dollar class-action law-suit against

the cell phone industry. We all need to be compensated!!!!!!! Do you

agree?

Hi Dan,

One thing I noticed when I was living up in the mountains recovering

was that when I would drive from the country into the city of Fukuoka

where there was a lot more ambient EMR, I would feel literally amped -

like I had four cups of coffee or something. This was in spite of the fact

that I had cut out all coffee from my diet. (I also become much more

easily irritated.)

I had lots of energy too until I too suddenly got sick. One thing the EMR

does is stimulate your adrenal glands to produce more adrenaline and

cortisol - so this could very well explain this - and also why people feel

hyperactive and why we have children with Attention-Deficit

HYPERACTIVITY disorder. In CFS the adrenal glands become exhausted

so I think given enough time and depending on exposure levels that this

could be reproduced in most people. Naturally, there are other factors

involved - genetic, etc.

It can also explain violent behavior and crime. There are studies which

show that when people are beamed with certain frequencies that they

can be made either hyperactive, depressed, estatic, sad, and on and on.

They are in fact using EMR devices in Iraq because it is supposed to

subdue the population. But sometimes this also has the reverse effect.

Sorry -- rereading my original reply, I realize I misrepresented your

statements in

your post. You're right -- it's an increasing problem, and definitely has it's

effects, and in

some it may be the thing that tips on over the edge towards CFS/ME...but in

others, EMR's

may just give them a headache.

Yes, perhaps 42 million people take sleeping pills...but there are also about 42

million

Starbucks that have popped up in the last 10 years! :)

like I had four cups of coffee or something. This was in spite of the

fact that I had cut out all coffee from my diet. (I also become much

more easily irritated.)

, can you test this concept by staying in the mountains, but

having a picnic in front of a microwave reflector, so that this will

hopefully be the only variable that changed?

Hi Dan,

No problem! I don't think Starbucks has caused more people to drink

coffee, but rather on the other hand, just introduced better coffee, I

renenber the mud that people used to drink in the US before Starbucks.

In Japan, Starbucks is about the only place one can go that is smoke-

free.

I was in Auroville recently and saw signs at the Visiter Center

saying " Please Turn Off Your Cell Phones. " This community of 20 sq

kilometers will not allow cell phone towers on their land and my HF meter

was reading 0 at the most sensitive setting almost everywhere there.

peace
