EHS otherwise know as Electro-Hyper-Sensitivity. Most people have never heard of it & would not believe such a condition exists. EHS is a condition where a person as a reaction to electric, magnetic or RF (radio frequency) fields. Symptoms can be headaches, itching, nausea, burning sensations, ringing in the ears, loss of concentration, blurred vision to name a few. People who have this condition have a difficult time just doing daily activities or going places.
How people get better from this is they avoid the fields as much as possible. But what if you don't know you have it, or are extremely ill & have to go to a hospital? That is a question I asked myself this week. I had to go to the hospital to visit someone & what I saw shocked me beyond belief.
The hospital was wired & wireless beyond anything I could imagine. Wireless routers were spaced every 3 rooms apart in the hallway. each room had a wireless hub & all staff members wore wireless tags on their clothes so the room knew who was in there. Wireless laptops on rolling stands everywhere. Even some of the monitors were now wireless.
So if someone had EHS how would they cope? What would the Dr's give them if they had an outbreak? How could someone possibly get better when the stuff monitoring them is part of whats making them sick?
I have felt the effects of EHS & I do not want to be in that environment for an extended period of time. I really don't have an answer for these questions at this time. I do know that after an hour or so being there, I now have a splitting headache that seems to be lasting longer than I usually have one.
So was it the stress of visiting someone in the hospital? Or was it the hospital itself making me sick?
