Christmas Lights

Katrina

For those with sensitivity to electricity:

Have you
A) Found any shielding effective enough to make some use of X-Mas lights safe?

B) Found any substitute for traditional lights? (The brightness, color, fun)

I see that some are encased in tubing, but it looks like a resonated plastic...would that make any positive difference?

I ditched having a tree in recent years, due to space and concern about chemical treatments ( have CI/MCS also).

I decided to try a couple of strings of lights across the room from me. I'msure other factors may play a part (such as gas heater...awful) but...
Each of 2 times I sat in here with them on, I had terrible reaction. Swelling, dizzy, toxic mud feeling in brain. Skin burning, maybe escalated tinnitus. Emerging sense of being in a rage attack.
I'm looking at other enviromental factors, and can't believe a string of lights, not next to me, could do this...denial, in other words?, or hopes of finding other source of the reaction.

I am clueless about house wiring...whether it is done correctly, or would make a difference.

ANy similar experience, delimma or suggestions?


Thanks,

Katrina
