How do I shield myself from laptop EMFs?

starmanxxxx
Would this solve my EMF sensitivity?
 I connected my laptop to an LCD TV, using 15 metre VGA & Jack to Jack & Ethernet cables, Laptop in one room TV in the next, I thought I would I be correct in assuming the further away I was from my laptop - the less electromagnetic-field around me, consequently I would`t suffer EMF sensitivity. As its the laptop making me ill. Additionally, Should I use a wired mouse & keyboard or wireless. Advice appreciated  from individuals with working knowledge of electrical fields. Unfortunatly after these efforts I still feel electro-sensistive (not as much though), consequently, how would I shield the laptop and cables completly to contain EMFs, Thanks

I'm not sure I would go for a wireless mouse.  (That's EMF too.)

Make sure you disable Wi-Fi on your laptop.

Get a mechanical mouse (the old-fashioned kind) if possible-- it's slightly better than an optical mouse.  It's a bit obsolete now, but that's what I'd recommend.

Among keyboards, they vary in strength when measured by a gaussmeter.   Sun microsystems USB keyboard is not too bad. (only slight emf when you type).

Obsolete?  That's all I use is the old ball-mouses... and I've got
extras in the garage...

They go well with my 17 year old keyboard... :-)

When on the pc, since a couple of days I'm grounding myself with attaching myself with a cable that is grounded outside...

Definitely good for body voltage... I feel the difference and you can measure the difference with a meter.

In previous posts I believe I've read some advising to ground pc (and other) too, haven't tried that and I don't know if it makes a difference if the pc is already grounded via the plug in the electricity grid...

I don't understand your setup -- you say you have a laptop in one room
and a TV in the other, but where are you?  It's true that increasing
your distance from the laptop and the TV should reduce your symptoms,
but some of the EMF is going to reach you via the cables to the keyboard
and mouse (although some people use fiber optic USB cables to reduce
that even further)
