Guest guest Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 Hi, Elysia,  I've heard NM is a good place for us, too. I have only one qualm--Dr Rae (of MCS fame) says that if I moved there, I would likely react to a whole new set of things. He says people with MCS, when confronted with a new environment, have the tendency to use their specially honed over-reactive immune systems to react to anything new they experience. When we leave pesticides, etc, behind, we still have an over-reactive immune system with too many mast cells present, etc. Our immune systems then go looking for new " possible " invaders or allergens. It is like having an entire military unit to police a small town. The soldiers have not much to do, and so they are looking for something under every rock.  That said, I believe I have heard land is not supposed to get smart meters. So moving to a place where smart meters are not coming might help. (land offers some similarity to Maine, environmentally speaking.)  Bless you, Diane  From: Elysia Drew <necessejamais@...> Subject: Would New Mexico be a viable option for me? Date: Thursday, March 31, 2011, 1:38 PM  Salut, all. I think I'm going to have to leave Maine b/c of the Smart Meters, after that 4-day exposure to them; it caused another stroke-like episode & I'm still not recovering (3 wks later); have had lots of memory loss, personality changes, & what feels like genetic damage (please excuse my subjectivity; I have only my horrible symptoms to go by). It turns out that " my " cabin is less than a mile from the nearest power line, so I'll probably have to move before they put Smart Meters in this town. I have a friend in New Mexico who I'd really like to live with. She's MCS, EHS, Lyme etc., & knows lots of locations in NM where there are no pesticides or power lines for miles. BUT there are other things to consider in NM: background radiation from nuclear testing, nuclear storage facilities, dust from mining operations, etc. I've heard that there's a lot of electrosensitives & chemically sensitive people who feel somewhat better in New Mexico, but I really have no way to confirm that. Considering how quickly I get nervous system damage from non-ionizing radiation from Smart Meters, would you say New Mexico might still be an option? I'm hoping my body wouldn't react to the low-grade background nuclear radiation. After the Smart Meter exposure, it's hard to believe that anything (besides pesticides) could feel worse than that. Opinions, suggestions welcome. Love & blessings -E. Drew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 Hi, Diane. It seems like a lot of states are just delaying Smart Meters for the time being, b/c they found the Smart Grid program will save money; doesn't mean they're going to put it off indefinitely. There's also the fact that different utilities are sometimes handled by different companies, so you might not have a Smart Meter for electricity, but you could end up w/ one for gas or water. As for NM, I'm hoping homeopathy can keep my immune system on track so long as I avoid pesticides, heavy metals etc. BTW, forgot to ask: does anyone have any electro(hyper)sensitive contacts in New Mexico? Love & blessings,E.

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 I'm in NM. So is Arthur Firstenberg. And there's at least one EHS in Taos and Albuquerque. I think if you avoid the obvious places you won't have a problem with radioactivity, though it is freaky to see the trucks with the waste containers going South from Los Alamos. The altitude is the main contributor to radiation. It's easy to get sunburnt or become allergic to juniper or other pollens. Vitamin D3 I just read can help against allergies. We do have wireless gas and water meters, though there was an opt out option for the gas ones. New construction uses digital electric meters, but not wireless so far...

Guest guest Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 Bill, when you say altitude is the main contributor to radiation, what do you mean? Is it better to be higher up or closer to sea level? > > From: Elysia Drew <necessejamais@...> > > Subject: Would New Mexico be a viable option for me? > > > > Date: Thursday, March 31, 2011, 1:38 PM > > > > Salut, all.
