My symptoms

Hillel Wahrman


My name is Hillel, and I from Tel Aviv Israel. I suffered since 1997
a condition called RSI, which means pain in the hands, upper back
and neck, due to trigger points caused by sitting prolonged hours in
front of a computer.

Half a year ago, after a very emotionally stressed year , and after
getting a new screen for my computer, I suddenly felt sensitive
when the computer was on. Also standing in the same room was enough.
It was the new screen omitting some chemical, I believe, that got me
started on many symptoms I am about to describe, beginning with a
burning in the face.

Soon after, I got so electro sensitive I could not work a computer,
stand next to a stove, go on the bus or go out in the sun! I was
very scared, thought that my life is ending at the age of 37. and
did not know what to do. My doctor said I must be imagining it.
Until today, I don't know of any doctor in Israel who knows about
this condition. And I can't tell people about it, they treat me
strangely after it, thinking me strange.

Funny thing is, I got allergic to shampoo a well. Seems I got some
kind of of chemical sensitivity combined. Then I got allergic to
dust and pollen.

I am a Phd political education student trying to write a
dissertation, and this stopped me, or at least slowed me down.

What I did the past half a year was to concentrate on being
happier. I eat less and better, drink a lot, and changed my
environment (I separated from a bad relationship I have been in, and
moved to a radiation free apartment I monitored with a meter).
Since then, symptoms have gradually lessened. I feel a bit better;
can work the computer with external keyboard. My allergies are still
with me, but are less, and I can go out into the sun with no
problem (In Israel there is lots of sun…).

I wish I did not have all these various pains. RSI,
Electrosesetivity, allergies, and I am sure they are all related. I
would love to hear recovery stories from people in this forum.
It is my fear that those who have recovered wish to return to the
healthy people world, and there for do not stay around the sick
forums. Can't blame them. Still, maybe some one can give me an
account on how he fixed himself, herself.

Thank you for listening,

HIllel

Hi HIllel,

Your symptoms sound very familiar to what many people in this list
experience.

I am curious if you have silver amalgam fillings (mercury) in your mouth?

That is the most common cause for these types of symptoms. Mercury is known
to poison many different systems in our bodies, and result in many different
symptoms. In my case I had 7 huge fillings in my mouth causing mercury
toxicity, and my symptoms started with chemical sensitivity, then electrical
sensitivity, and hypothyroidism.

With the help of people on this list, I've reduced my symptoms dramatically.

Glenn

I don't think that's a problem on this list, because this list
is less than a year old, and this seems to be a problem
that takes years to completely recover from. So I don't
think anyone has yet become well enough to want to leave.

For example, I started making progress against this back in 2001,
after I got my mercury fillings removed. It took me a 2 years
before I was able to return to working full-time sitting in
front of a computer 8 hours/day. And even though today I mostly
have no symptoms around most things, there are still some
exceptions to this -- LCD computer monitors or CRT monitors
run in high-resolution mode (1024x768 or higher) still give
me problems, as due cellphones and headphones. So for these
things, I still just avoid them.

Welcome to the list, Hillel. I have received much and valuable
information from this list. I hope you will get what you need. Everyone
is different and has a little different angle on the "cure". I have
tried many of the remedies and have gotten good results from many of
them.
I am not surprised your doctor thought you were imagining it. A
neurologist told me to see a behavioral counselor. Little did he know
how much therapy I have already had!
I definitely recommend removing the metal fillings with an informed
dentist, then heavy metal and toxin detox programs and immune system
regeneration. Remove yourself as much as possible in the mean time and
do the detox slowly.
How to detox, well we have been discussing many good ways for months.
Where shall we start?
Colon cleanse, kidney cleanse, liver-gall bladder flush and cleanse,
and especially rebuild your intestines with probiotics (good bacteria),
raw food and enzymes. The nerves need attention. Choline
(cholinesterase and acetylcholine) are effected by many pesticides and
toxins. Cleaning out the mercury and other crap from the
neurotransmitters and nerve endings as well as regenerating the
myelinated sheath around the nerves made of fats and proteins.
Eat organic foods.
There are many products you can buy to eat, wear, use, etc.
All will come in due time.
What and where are your particular interests?
Andrew
