compact fluorescents, metal in teeth, shielding electric panel

Hello everyone,

An electrically sensitive friend has asked me to ask the group:

1. Does anyone react to compact fluorescent light bulbs and, if
so, have they come up with a solution besides avoidance?

2. Has anyone experienced any improvement from removing metal
crowns and metal pins from their teeth? This question does not relate
to mercury amalgam, but plain metal.

3. Can anyone advise on how to shield an electrical panel?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thank you.

I think a better question would be, does anyone here NOT react
to compact fluorescent bulbs? That is, I think it's pretty
common for someone with ES to react to compact fluorescent bulbs.

Switching to incandescents is the easy/cheap solution. If you
can't do that, then I suppose you're left with finding an EMF
protection device which will help you, or start doing things
to improve your overall health / detox.

Marc is (as usual) spot on - both normal fluorescents and energy saving
compact bulbs seem to be a problem for virtually all ES people. At home one
can simply switch to incandescents (as long as they do not get phased out,
which is unfortunately a distinct possibility in Europe). The problem
arises when out in shops, public transport etc. Shops with low roofs and
low hanging fluorescent lights are a particular problem (not surprising from
physics - intensity obeys the inverse square law).

Improving underlying health certainly seems to help with ES, but for Sue it
does seem that reaction to fluorescents has not improved as much as other
things. Fortunately she has made friends with some of the small shopkeepers
and they switch fluorescents off if she comes in. Large supermarkets are
much less of a problem because they have high ceilings.Trains and buses with
overhead strip lighting are still pretty much a no-no.

I am trying to come up with a solution as my industrial design thesis
but having trouble getting validation from my thesis instructors.
ANyone else out there who gets headaches and such from them? Let me
know. I have a good idea to retrofit them but need more info on the
problem from others who suffer from them.
