![]() I have changed my phone from 4G to 3G in settings in order to reduce EMF exposure when my phone is on. ![]() Lesson #2: Watch to see if 3G goes back to 4G when you toggle airplane mode on and off. BUT when you turn on airplane mode when using the swipe up feature, both Bluetooth and Wifi stay on unless you turn them off first in settings! This must be the default for new iPhones (and may even reset back to this with a software upgrade).Ī: Airplane mode off (blue color plane) and Wifi is on and Bluetooth is onī: Airplane mode on (orange color plane) and yet Bluetooth and WiFi is still on – this is not good if you’re using your phone next to your bed or in a car or close to your bodyĬ: Airplane mode on (orange color plane) and Bluetooth and WiFi is off (they have a line through them) – make sure it’s like this when it’s next to your bed or in a car or close to your body Lesson #1: When you toggle airplane mode off it via the swipe up feature it also activates Bluetooth and WiFi. I’m going to share the lessons I learned so they can help you prevent something similar. I also drive a keyless car for 4 hours! Also, when you’re in the midst of this type of thing you’re kind of slow in figuring things out! I figured I wasn’t feeling that great because of my recent trip and spending time sitting in planes and being exposed to so much WiFi in airports, planes, hotels, and conference rooms. Unfortunately, it took me some time to connect the dots. The results provide ground for future study of these characteristic features being risk factors for development of EHS and or consequences of EHS.įortunately, I used my Cornet meter and figured out something was up. A minority of the EHS group had sought medical attention, been diagnosed by a physician or received treatment.Įxhaustion syndrome, anxiety disorder, back/joint/muscle disorder, depression, functional somatic syndrome and migraine were comorbid with EHS. More than half of the EHS group reported that their symptoms started after a high-dose or long-term EMF exposure, that they actively tried to avoid EMF sources and that they mostly could affect the EMF environment. More than 50% in the EHS group reported having EMF-related symptoms more often than once a week, and the mean number of years experiencing EHS was 10.5. Middle age, female sex and poor perceived health was found to be associated with EHS. Using data from a large-scale population-based questionnaire study, we investigated persons with self-reported (n = 91) EHS in comparison to referents (n = 3,250). The present study investigated demographics, lifestyle factors, frequency and duration, coping strategies, proportion meeting clinical criteria for intolerance attributed to electromagnetic fields (EMF) and comorbidity. Health problems evoked in the presence of electrical equipment is a concern, calling for better understanding for characteristics of electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS) in the general population. ![]() This abstract summarizes EHS well: Characteristics of perceived electromagnetic hypersensitivity in the general population ![]() This is a very real condition and many people are not even aware that EMFs may be playing a role in their symptoms. I have my phone on airplane mode most of time because in the last 6 months I’ve discovered I have some degree of EHS or electromagnetic hypersensitivity. I have a feeling it played a role in my worsening lower back pain too! It was affecting my sleep, making me twitchy and agitated, leaving me feeling exhausted and more jet-lagged than usual (I had just travelled to the USA and then back to Australia) and making my right arm/mouse arm “thick” and slow when working on my PC. I recently got a new iPhone 6 and after having it for a good few weeks I discovered it had been zapping me with EMFs (electromagnetic fields) even when it was on airplane mode.
