metal roof, metal ceiling, metal 2x4 -- OK?

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

I just joined. I don't know if I am electrosensitive or

not. I am a severe (bedridden except bathroom) sufferer of

strictly-defined neuroimmune diseases and likely-related

diseases. My guess is that EMF is not -- or not yet (I'd

like to keep it that way) -- related to any medical issues

in my case. However, I do feel a buzzing sensation around

electric fans. I might or might not be reacting in other

ways, including to cell phones and computers. I have never

done a blinded test on myself -- or even an unblinded one.

I joined because I need to know if metal roofs, low metal

ceilings, and metal 2x4 construction are potentially

problematic. I know at least the roof is grounded; I think

a lightning strike would take out the power meter, or

something like that. I can possibly get it tested with an

EMF meter of some type. I use a lot of electrical

equipment.

In short: I want to prevent EMF issues. What do I look for,

ask, consider replacing, avoid, etc.? Is it good, bad, remediable,

or don't even consider it?

Comments?

About me: I am an advocate for neuroimmune diseases (see my

blog in my sig). As yet I know little about EMF physics,

biomedicine, or politics. I suspect the politics are bad.

I know that many people have EMF issues, especially in MCS

and M.E. I am a strongly science-oriented person.

While I have you, I would be interested in 2 more things.

(I'm aware the first one is off-topic -- private email is

welcome.)

1) A /very brief/ (only a few sentences) scientific

explanation or empirical facts that I can use to

motivate the topic to other science-oriented people.

(As in, I would say, " I know nothing about it, but I

was told that ... " ).

2) Ideas for creating a blinded experiment so that I can

test myself for these issues. I'm thinking something

like loud music, a blindfold, and a fan with the blades

removed. Hard to arrange that, however.

Thanks.

P.S. Please CC: me on all posts in case I miss any subject

header changes that are relevant. This group is

prohibitively high volume for my capacity to do things.

I want to see the original (pre-hold) Lo et al. 2010 NIH/FDA/Harvard MRV paper.
