New authoritative book about illnesses caused by exposure to electromagnetic fields – by Michael Bevington
At the beginning of this ground-breaking book Dr Andrew Tresidder, a British G.P, makes an appeal to other doctors to understand and recognise the symptoms of electrosensitivity. He reports (I have paraphrased a little): 'A number of my patients have symptoms and illnesses which have been caused by exposure to electromagnetic fields, and which have been relieved by avoidance of the same fields. Examples are:
- a 22-year-old whose headaches and tiredness were abolished and sleep pattern improved after moving her mobile phone on charge away from the bed, removing the mobile from her body space by day, and switching off other electrics
- a 78-year-old whose headaches so concerned me that blood tests, an MRI and neurology opinion were sought (both normal) – his symptoms disappeared after switching off his home Wi-Fi hub router and cordless phone
- a 64-year-old very fit man who had noticed 4 months of decreased vitality and increased irritability – both reversed after changing the wireless router to a wired one
- a 40-year-old and a 60-year-old whose headaches disappeared (one) and migraines substantially reduced (the other) after removing cordless phones from the bedroom
- another adult has had tingling of face and muzzle area, and loss of ability to speak and think fluently when near a Wi-Fi router
- a child had a prolonged feverish illness for several weeks after a viral illness, which coincidentally completely resolved when transmitting Wi-Fi, baby alarm and cordless phones were removed from the house (ie failure to recover normally and rapidly from a viral illness).
'Diagnosis in all of these cases is mainly on history, supported in some by the use of an Electrosmog Detector. Other symptoms that more sensitized people can develop include headaches, fatigue, poor sleep patterns, altered sensation and tingling, irritation and rashes, earaches and unsteadiness, confusion and difficulty in memory, aches and numbness, mood swings, faintness, tremors and restless legs, and other sensitivities.'
