Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity Syndrome (EHS) is a multisystem medical condition characterised by physical symptoms associated with exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMF's). Sufferers report experiencing symptoms after or during exposure to even very low levels of EMF's.
Two members of our Safer EMF family are affected by Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity Syndrome.
Those with EHS are likely to experience several of the following symptoms:
general: insomnia, fatigue, nausea, reflux, fluid retention, headaches (often described as vice like, gripping or pressure), sensitivity to chemicals and food, insatiable thirst, urinary/bowel urgency, behaviour change and synaesthesia
skin: burning, prickling and biting sensation on the skin like ‘electric shocks’, rashes, ulcers and shingles
nerve: restlessness, irritability, poor short term memory, difficulty concentrating, anomia, dizziness, vertigo, dyslexia, forgetfulness, brain fog and learning difficulties
heart: palpitations, chest pain, increased heart rate, Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) and blood pressure changes
musculoskeletal: body aches and joint pains, jaw and teeth pain, numbness or tingling sensations, muscle tremors, vibration and seizures
hearing: ringing in the ears, tinnitus, hearing loss, impaired balance
immune: impending cold or flu like symptoms that don't eventuate
eye and ear: vision and hearing disturbances
