Re: Turns out my mattress had coils! just sold it. question

steve
I have such a small apt. that lengthy airing out isn't an option, I would have no place to sleep.
I thought about an organic futon, maybe with a wool layer for natural flame resistance. I could always place a mattress allergy cover over it to keep in any smell and then maybe get a wool topper if the futon is too firm. I also have fibromyalgia so I have pressure point issues (always flipping myself over because of the pain)

you might want to look into organic cotton futons. 
then you have no metal and no chemicals.  
of course, cotton has its own unique odor but it 
dissipates fairly quickly.  
and let me share with you what i did in the past... 
i purchased two high quality latex mattresses... 
purchased as two sheets of 'foam', from an 
upholstery store, put them in an airtight mattress
cover and then used either (alternately) cotton 
or wool or sheepskin mattress covers.  that 
arrangement served me well for many years.  
presently, i am using a very well aired-out air 
bed with cotton and wool toppings on it - and 
that too works well.  but if you buy an air 
mattress new, you might want to air it out for 
a while before you use it.  mine is so old that 
it doesn't have one of those electric pumps in 
it... thank goodness.  but it doesn't seem to 
lose air... thank goodness.  :)  
love, patricia

Finding an organic spring mattress is easy but finding one without springs that I won't be allergic to is difficult. If a latex bed smells like latex it would be a problem.

sounds good.  
sorry about the fibromyalgia... 
isn't that closely related to ems?

I think it starts with fibro which leads to other issues like es and mcs

I wonder how many in this group have fibromyalgia symptoms?  Five ES people that I know personally, myself included, have fibromyalgia which vanishes when we are in low EMF environments.  So my thoughts are that fibromyalgia is a product of elevated EMF exposure.

i can't help but think it is... 
it involves muscle contractions 
and muscles are controlled by 
electrical impulses IN the body 
and i'd think also OUTSIDE the 
body, as in cell towers, smart 
meters, etc.

Re: Turns out my mattress had coils! just sold it. question

In reply to this post by steve
a woman who used to live where i live 
had "fibromyalgia"... and this place is FULL 
of EMF.  her husband is an IT tech at 
the university and LOVES high tech gadgets 
so EVERYTHING was electrical and wireless. 
and the EMF measures WAY HIGH here.  
i had to move out of the house because of 
it.  her husband has FINALLY come around 
to understanding EMF, but it took YEARS 
of offering information AND also my own 
uncomfortable reactions that could only 
have been from EMS... such as when he 
would leave his iPod or iPad or cell phone 
in his car, and i would ask him if he had 
forgotten and he would realize that i could 
really FEEL the "vibes".  it's now at the 
point where he humbly apologizes when i 
ask him if he left something in his car.
when we do a reality check, it's usually an 
errant piece of electronics... 
so he's a believer now.  
i believe that if he had solved the EMF 
problem out here when she lived here, 
she would still be here, but instead he 
didn't recognize the problem and she 
didn't recognize the source of her 
fibromyalgia... and they are now - sadly -
estranged.  i wish i could talk with her 
about it... maybe someday.  ?!?!?    
love, patricia
