Stephanie,
I spent hundreds of dollars on the phone problem with little success.
What finally worked was increasing my distance from the receiver by
attaching a stethoscope to listen through. Cheap and works great,
although some people have trouble hearing me speak from that distance.
I carry a second stethoscope in my car to use at public phones.
wow, bluebonnet, what a creative solution! What I have done which I will say
is somewhat successful, is I have a Polycom speakerphone. This is the brand
most major corporations use. Speakerphones people have in their homes have a
technology which makes it so that when one person is speaking, the other
temporarily cannot. If two people talk at once, it cuts off one and gets choppy.
Polycom has a dual digital something or other (can't remember name, I
know it has the word "dual" in it), where people can interrupt and talk over one
another, etc. and it will not "cut out". Most people don't know I'm on
speakerphone.
However, it has computer-like circuitry in it and I have to be fairly
far from it to not feel agitated. but it is certainly better than being on the
regular type of phone.
one last note, the phone I have retails for around $400 (not a typo!),
but I found a place in New York on google where it was like $250. I think I
have have spent thousands of dollars dealing with this electrical sensitivity
