Yes, that was my experience as well when I was more sensitive.
Keep the CPU and monitor and power adapter as far away from you
as possible, and use extension cords if that will help get them
even further away. Also, laptops were nasty because they were
so close to me, and also because I reacted strongly to LCD screens.
I'm not so sure about the mouse -- whether it should be a ball-mouse
or if a laser-mouse is okay... I've generally used a ball-mouse
just to be safe (still easily found on eBay!)

However, as I've gotten better and found EMF devices which work
for me, my computer's CPU and monitor have edged a bit closer
to me, but probably still are further away than "normal". Also,
I still run my monitor (CRT) at 800x600 pixels, as I find this
more tolerable than higher resolutions, and also the bigger
pixels keeps me from leaning towards the monitor to see it!
