I have a severe reaction to fluorescent lights (feel weak and faint after
only a few minutes). I also have weak muscles and a boatload of other weird
symptoms. My new Dr thinks I may have heavy metal poisoning and is going
to test for that. Have any of you ever heard of that causing light and
electrical field sensitivity? Does that make sense at all?

Thanks! Amy


Amy, yes! I believe heavy metals CAN be a culprit. Interestingly, I have
the same reactions (and my name is also Amy). That was my whole reason for
joining this forum. It took me probably 11 years to figure out it was the
lights. I know. Slow! Before, I was just diagnosed with fibromyalgia, had
chronic fatigue, and I have thyroid issues too. Whether the thyroid is related
to heavy metals-I don't know.
When under fluorescents, I have so many symptoms and feel like I am
literally dying, or as I can best describe, 'melting' inside.
Reading up on heavy metals has made me realize that it may take literally
years to feel my best. There are many products out there. I'm currently
taking about four but that is because I was so dang tired of feeling sick and
tired!
