 ElectroHyperSensitivity

EHS UPDATE 2001

There now appears to be greater recognition of the EHS condition, scientific studies are appearing which validate the condition as a definite clinical entity. Dr William Rea, during a lecture on Man and His Environment in 1991, said that it's s recognition would assist in the treatment of the patient suffering from environmental illness.

Dr Anne Arnold Silk an opthalmologist in an article on Biomagnetism and Electrical Allergy "The interaction of fields with the electrically driven human system poses new clinical problems. It behoves all professionals to examine the interface with their own disciplines."

A GP practicing in the U.K. , Dr David Dowson: "Electro-magnetic sensitivity is so rare, people often dismiss it as a psychological problem, but it is certainly not."

Simon Best, editor of the medical news journal Electromagnetic Hazard and Therapy, "A significant number of people are reporting some kind of electrode sensitivity. The allergy is very restrictive. It affects both the working and domestic life. Sufferers can fall unconscious at any time. They are also plagued by nausea, blurred vision and migraines. It is a very serious condition."

Dr Cyril Smith a prominent UK researcher into EHS says that " The implications of such research over the past decade are that levels of EMR are present in the environment whether man-made or natural, can cause stress and contribute to illness in certain hypersensitive persons. By the time that such environmental illness has progressed to the stage of meriting a formal medical diagnosis it may also have progressed to the stage of irreversibility early diagnosis is essential . He also states that "It is most unusual to find electromagnetic hypersensitivity do not already have a long history of chemical sensitivities."

The author would add here that any person either recovering from illness or who wishes to avoid illness would do well to assess the home electromagnetic environment. The bedroom especially should be checked for 'hot spots ' of EMR. For optimum health, the body requires a stress free environment, during sleep, when cellular repair and rejuvenation occurs.

Many EHS people are also highly sensitive to artificial chemicals. Therefore the environment also needs careful attention, in this regard, as the symptoms of EHS can be provoked by chemical exposure and vice versa. All household and personal toiletries need to be assessed for the artificial chemical content and avoided where possible to assist in recovery.
