Brain surge

>
> Hello All,
> I'm new to this group and seeking advice. I do healing work for a living and in general find myself to be envirosensitive, though nothing that I couldn't handle well, until the install of 18 electric and gas 'smart' meters at the end of my condo building 2 yrs ago - about 10 ft from my bedroom (a laundry room is in-between). As well, 2 other clusters of 18 smart meters each from 2 neighboring buildings are about 50 ft from my unit. There are power lines about 150 ft away from my rental unit and I hear that cell antennae are going up on them in next few months.
> Concerning my symptoms the most disturbing is what I call 'brain surge' - a sense of electrical currents building in my head like a wave, then crashing. This is the worst when I am falling asleep or just waking up. Does anyone else have this manifestation?
> Also have constant high pitched ringing. I don't consider it technically tinnitus - which is ringing in the ears...it's between my ears inside my head. I have insomnia (well rather, circadian rhythm disturbance - fully awake till 3 or 4am, then sleep til 11am). I also feel fatigue, mild depression at times, slow to heal with skin lesions, hair loss, short term memory loss.
> Am actively looking for new home - challenging on a budget in high rent - low vacancy area I live in to find separate unit dwelling especially. I had the bedroom tested by an electrical engineer who brought in a $30,000 machine from his work. He confirms the meter microspikes and signals from the surrounding various frequency sources, but says degree of symptoms is relative to individual of course. These are other measure I've taken:
> -I have been sleeping in my living room on floor further away from meters
> -I have foiled the walls of my bedroom
> -I use an earthing set-up that's grounded outside
> -I eat healthy (I juice, eat organic, no meat, rarely dairy) and use supplements high in antioxidants.
> -I am on my pc several hrs/day but use earthing pad
> -I recently opted out of the digital gas and electric meters, in hopes of possibly decreasing the 'dirty' electricity wiring factor in my walls
> -I switch off all the circuits of my fusebox at nite except of the power to the fridge (had some freezer defrost before)
> -I have asked my neighbors about wifi and to turn off at night
> -I use a landline phone-took out cordless 2 yr ago. Rarely turn on/use my flip phone.

> I'm debating whether or not to get an EEG as my head symptoms are so disruptive. Anyone else have brain surge? Have not found refs to this anywhere. I understand this forum is not qualified to give medical advice..but from a lay perspective, does anyone have input they may feel might be helpful?  Thanks in advance for reading thru and for any assistance!

My cousin reacts similarly to her smartmeter as you are describing. She feels the brain surge. She described it also as feeling like fingers reaching out to grab. Hers makes her feel completely out of sorts and disconnected.

It is like sitting next to a loudspeaker inside your head 24/7...  The intensity and field may change. I know two others who hear or perceive the energy field changes with ear changes.

> I don't get headaches with my ES. Maybe I can better describe 'brain surge' as high frequency ringing inside my brain, but amped up by about 5X, so the sound is both more like broad band static (think HBO show preludes) that crescendos to a peak then breaks/gaps momentarily and then resumes at a lower intensity.
> Is not change in blood flow -- am not getting up, am laying down. For the times of day I have it, waking or falling asleep - I wonder if has something to do with the sort of brain waves I'm producing then.
> It's like what I imagine an epileptic goes through with brain overload - except I don't lose consciousness.
> As have not found any info on brain surge symptoms or others like me yet (eg - on this forum) is why considering med evaluation to rule out tumor; like EEG to start, tho not even sure if that will yield much info.  Reluctant to get into extensive med tests as is expensive, takes time, etc. and what docs are up on radiation or emfs and how to advise on treatment??

> If this is unique to me, then maybe best to pursue testing...I guess the protocol is hearing test, then EEG, then CT scan or MRI? Tho CT uses xrays; and MRI uses radio wave frequencies - is that safe? Hmm.. maybe thermography.   And relocation of course!

> Thanks for caution on the foil. I think will get it rechecked by my engineer friend. When he first checked, we put up some foil patches on the wall and that did reduce the emfs.The foil is continuously connected and grounds to an outlet with an earthing ground wire.
