> Greetings Dr Z.
> I am sending this fax to you to outline my current problem so we can  
> make the most out of my visit scheduled Tuesday morning. I have  
> had a serious debilitating condition for the last 9 months. Nearly  
> three years ago, you and I had a previous session, and I was having  
> some issues with what I recall referring to as tension type  
> headaches. Fortunately at that time, that problem disappeared on  
> its own. I had just moved back from Florida and perhaps being back  
> in Wisconsin alleviated my problem. Unfortunately the disappearance  
> seemed to be only temporary. I am having a similar but different  
> problem again and it's difficult for me to treat because I find the  
> cause to be electromagnetic sensitivity.
>
> First, I understand the rare nature of this phenomenon. I am sure  
> many experts would consider it does not exist, but nevertheless, I  
> find I have the symptoms of this unusual problem. My symptoms  
> started when I moved to Madison from Manitowoc in August of 2009.  
> I started having some unusual type of Tension headaches that got  
> worse when I would be working, which was at Sears in Madison. In  
> particular, my tension (as well as tingling, and jumpiness) would  
> get worse when the fans in the building would turn on in the morning  
> but my problem would get much, much better when the fans shut off  
> about a half hour before the store closed. I observed this every  
> day for over 4 months.
>
> However, it is not as simple as this. Over time I found that when I  
> drove away from the Madison area, I would also feel much better as I  
> headed toward the Manitowoc area on Hwy 151. I particularly felt  
> better after I reached Columbus. My head got an immediate relief  
> consisting of less tension, less pressure, being able to think more  
> clearly, concentrate better, etc. Unfortunately the reverse was  
> also true, and still is. When I drive to Madison, when I reach the  
> Columbus area I start to feel that additional tension and tingling  
> in the head accompanied by a difficulty concentrating and overall  
> jumpy uneasiness.
>
> I seriously began to wonder what is causing this. Strangely enough,  
> many times I was in the middle of the countryside in Dane County,  
> with very little around me (farm fields, etc) and I still feel  
> awful. Yet when I get away from that area and back in Manitowoc  
> County (or Sheboygan County) I feel much better. So I began to  
> consider what could be affecting me there in the middle of the  
> country that is not present in the middle of the country in  
> Manitowoc County? That is when I considered radio waves.

> virtually identical to the areas of Wisconsin where I have been  
> having problems. AT&T 3G is a new type of cell phone wave.

> completely understood. The reason I am seeing you about this is  
> because I believe the best course of action is to address the  
> physical handicaps this problem has created for me. I have thought,

> Removing myself from the exposure - Certainly this gives me the  
> greatest relief as I can remove myself from these waves by moving to  
> a different location. For example, there is 3G coverage in  
> Appleton. If I drive out of that area to the countryside of  
> Manitowoc County where this is no such waves, I feel great.

> Nighttime – I often feel a sense of great relief at night. For  
> example, I was visiting family in Madison over the weekend. I felt  
> awful during the day but around 9 or 10pm I started to feel great  
> relief, almost as if the problem disappears. I am curious if  
> something in the body is changing at night, (perhaps lower blood  
> pressure?) or if something in the environment is changing such as  
> less radio waves.
> Tilting my head down – when I turn my head face down, I very often  
> feel better. I ask myself why. The ideas that come to my mind  
> are either I am turning my face away from whatever radio waves are  
> impacting me, or the muscles in my neck are pulling in a different  
> way that take pressure of some nerves that may be affected by this  
> phenomenon.
>
> Lying down - Often when I lie down I feel some relief. Not sure  
> why. Maybe the blood pressure is different; maybe my head is tilted  
> in a different way as I explained above. Maybe other muscles become  
> relaxed.
>
> Waking up – when I wake up, I am fine for a few moments, but if I am  
> in a "hot zone" then I feel the effects after I get up. I am not  
> sure if this relief is due to sleeping or due to lying down at the  
> time before rising in the morning.
>
> Raising my arms- just recently (Saturday) I was in Madison for a  
> wedding and I noticed that when I would raise my arms above my head,  
> I would start to feel relief as well. Could there be a change in  
> blood pressure in my head when I do this? Note I was taking aspirin  
> at the time as well.
>
> Touching my hand to my face – When I take my hand and touch to the  
> area of my face near or around the nose, I do feel a sense of relief  
> very often. I don't even have to be pressing very hard. Could  
> there be some stimulation of the nerves in this region that is
