Hi Len,

A couple of years prior to my becoming "electrically sensitive", I also
would go "tanning" prior to vacations. I found that after a few sessions,
the amount of time I could spend in the booth started to reduce (theoretically
you should be able to increase your time). I also got symptoms of a
fungal infection all over my body from this. I assume that this was
significantly damaging my immune system.

These days, there is no way that you'd get me to use a tanning bed,
because of the harsh electrical environment. I'm quite willing to get
a tan, but only using real sunshine!
