Allergic to Wireless?

EHS (Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity Syndrome) is a condition in which people are highly sensitive to electromagnetic fields. In an area like a wireless hotspot, they experience pain or other symptoms. People with EHS experience a variety of symptoms including burning and itchy skin, headache, panic attacks, chest pain and heart problems, nausea, fatigue,confusion/poor concentration and/or memory loss, ear pain/ringing in the ears, paralysis, insomnia, feeling a vibration and muscle aches. These symptoms are subjective and vary between individuals, which makes the condition difficult to study.

More than 30 studies conducted to determine what link the condition has to exposure to electromagnetic fields from sources such as radar dishes, mobile phone signals and, Wi-Fi hotspots.

Why is WiFi Potentially Worse than Other Radiation?

These day, electomagnetic fields are all around us, no matter where you live. They emanate from power lines, household electrical wiring, appliances and microwaves, televisions. Then you have the information-carrying radio waves of cell phones, cell phone towers and wireless internet connections.

WiFi is a kind of radio wave that operates at either 2.4 or 5 gigahertz – slightly higher than your cell phone. Since they’re designed to allow for transmission of very large amounts of data, WiFi radio waves also emit greater amounts electromagnetic radiation.
