If you have ES, then yes, for many people fluorescent lights are a major
trigger of symptoms. (This also applies to low-energy light bulbs which are
basically mini fluorescent tubes in a coil).

As Marc says, finding relief is currently very difficult. One idea that has
been floated recently is that magnesium deficiency is a frequent cause of
myelin sheath problems which can cause ES.

The trouble is that lots of different things seem to work for different
people, and one should really try to find the underlying cause why your
problems have arisen. This is often very difficult. Most sufferers from
severe ES seem to have had either immune system problems (e.g. ME) or
prolonged high exposure to microwaves (including mobile/cordless phones).
Could either of these apply to you?

Best wishes, Ian

I work for the Red Cross and we had two blood drives this week. The room had
fluorescent lights. My burning and fatigue have been awful since working
there. I was wondering if it could be from the lights. What do you guys do
when this happens and your symptoms get worse?
