Computer wiring

KathyB

Does anyone know where I can get a  long cable that hooks up a monitor to move the cpu further away? I have an older hook up w the 3 prongs. It's a flat screen w/o an HDMI.

I burn every time I use it. I have the cpu 2.5 ft away, but need it 6 ft or more away.

Thanks, Kathy

I would think "Radio Shack" would have them, Kathy. 


Thanks for the input on your water, btw.

I used to be like that. After I got rid of my dental amalgams (about 10 of them!) and the mercury already inside the body, the problem faded. Now, I only get burn by the PC when I use it at and after dusk. I've set up a little website on this: http://users.cjb.net/no-amalgam/index.htm The context is Malaysian, but you'd probably find it useful anyhow.

The cause of your sensitivity may be different. This may be useful to you:

This one doesn't say much about what to do, but the explanation helps.

An older hookup with 3 prongs?  What kind of computer monitor cable is that?

The older cables were VGA cables (15-pin).  I still use these cables, because
they seem to be more tolerable than the newer DVI/HDMI cables.

Oh, do you mean component video -- 3 RCA cables that are red/blue/green?
I know that TV sets use these, but I didn't know that computers/monitors
used these...

Correction: It *used* to be after dusk. Now, I begin to feel discomfort in the chest even 30 minutes before sunset. I thought it has to do with the natural rhythm of the body, tuning down the natural shield as it prepares for sleep.

Hi, Kumara,

Could it be that there is just much more electrical and wireless activity in your area in the evening?  I notice the same problem here, but earlier in the day.  I notice that it corresponds with children coming home from school.  We get a spike in energy use then.  Then it eases off some, but ramps back up later in the evening after dinnertime.  Also, doing computing on weekends used to bother me for the same reason--more people were using their computers at home during that time. 


Sometimes I have noticed also that I react more when my electrolytes or various minerals are particularly low, or vitamins B12 or D3 are low.  Hydrogen also is something which I noticed often helps me.  But I personally don't see a solid relationship with these and the time of day.  That seems to be more related to when I have been particularly emf-ed (and thus these minerals/ vitamins are depleted).  Except for magnesium.... I find magnesium deficiency will cause waking every night at about 4AM until I take that.  [At 4AM one has the lowest stores of magnesium, so I like to take magnesium in the evening before bed.]

I am not saying you are necessarily incorrect about your circadian rhythms causing this; just suggesting that you might pay attention to whether it is instead spikes in emfs.  Spikes of emfs mean you can usually work around these times.  And if nutrient deficiencies occur as a result of emf nutrient depletion, then you have something to work with on that end, too.


Good luck,

Diane

Yes, it is the 15 pin VGA. Thanks.

Ahh, well you should be able to buy those online -- Amazon.com, eBay, etc.  I think you can find VGA cables that are 10 feet long or longer.

My recommendation would be to look for ones which are triple-shielded, and also have ferrites on each end of the cable.  I *think* I get less symptoms with such cables.  VGA cables are so old-tech these days that even a nice cable should be cheap.

Here is a triple shielded, dual ferrite, 10 foot VGA cable:

Higher sensitivity -- Re: [eSens] Computer wiring

When I was using a weak wireless two-way antenna to get my internet, and I lived in a densely populated area, I would always get much interference on the signal at dusk, and during heavy precipitation.  I think that the power on the cell phone towers amp up around dusk and during heavy precipitation in order to be able to compete with the signal interferences.  

My son's symptoms also flare up during these times.  The pull on the power grid is stronger in the homes when folks  return home from work, which makes evenings difficult, but that is not as tightly correlated with dusk.  So in the evening, there are more problems in general, and there are still problems with early morning which may have to do with
internal testing being done by the local transmission towers.

These are my personal observations of course.

Thanks,

Kate

Thanks for your account of things.

My teenage son made a point of saying that he would only take vitamins when he felt he needed them.  So I left him alone for 2 years.  After much trouble with health and insomnia, he is taking B-12, vitamin D, multivitamin mineral blend w/o iron or copper. He tried 5HTP, and DID NOT like it.  I recently bought magnesium citrate, and sodium butyrate (for liver/brain function support).  I'm hoping he'll take these at bed time soon to diminish the insomnia which I'm sure is being aggravated by the rising EMF tide.  I'd love to turn breakers off at night, but for some reason, that is not acceptable to my family.

BTW, his ability to participate in life has improved dramatically.  He  is finally living and breathing a life that is no longer isolated due to health.

He is so sensitive in general that he can't be rushed with changes.  He willingly elects to eat a GAPS like diet.  He has found that to be helpful on his own terms.  Insomnia is still and issue as is liver stress.  Right now,I can't get him to take home made yogurt or kefir, but he is starting to take fermented foods, which in the past would cause distressing symptoms.  Since he is adamant to do things on his own terms, I can't really discuss things like I used to with him, so this personal account of what works is quite useful.

I also think that it is amazing that he is self-selecting to eat a full GAPS diet when I provide the food and prepare it accordingly.  I don't know whether he will ever elect to do the Intro, but I'm sure he could benefit as we did the SCD diet strictly about 8 years ago which good results, and then we dropped everything while relocating, and during that time he developed addictive tendencies related to internet access and gaming.  I has been hard in that regard, but we have finally decided that as long as he lives in our home, internet access will be restricted to a few hours a day.  I don't think we'll have a gaming console in the home any more...too stressful.

Any body else with similar experiences with a willful teen who comes around?  How do you convince them to endure the Intro?

K

Thanks,

Kate

I live in an orchard (on a hill) next to a virgin rain-forest (Malaysia). Usually, the only wireless activities here are from telco towers from downhill and from a nearby hill. Signal strength is pretty low at any time of the day. So, the only thing I can think of is the lowered bio-energy field. For this reason, I avoid using computers after sundown. Failure to do so would result in chest discomfort and poor sleep. Otherwise, I normally sleep quite well.

Thanks for the tip on magnesium. I've recently read about it too. I think I'll give it a go.
