I was wondering if I could get some help on alleviating my issue. Apparently I am becoming emf sensitive. It started last spring when I developed this very harsh and noticeable pressue in my head (similar to going up and down in elevation without the relief one gets from swallowing). I could not touch bluetooth devices, wifi powered xbox one controller, be next to my older 2012 imac computer, touch my motorola g power phone, etc without getting this specific and very weird symptom. It lasted for a couple weeks and then suddenly went away. I decided from that moment I needed to be more careful about my electronics use. I disabled wifi on our router and I use ethernet only. I have this feeling that it was caused by an ear infection as I was struggling with one at the same time or a build up of wax (Im 46 and I think that may be a problem now at my age).

Ive been fine for almost a full year but suddenly I am experiencing the same symptom again. It started while I was playing my xbox series S console (with the controller wired) in my room. It starts with my head feeling hot and then the pressure in the head only. I have this feeling it has something to do with our new neighbors and what they are doing directly below my room. I found out in a weird way that they are crypto currency farmers of sorts. A gentlemen was stairing up at me from my back porch door wall (sliding glass door for west coast folks), and I asked him if I could help him. He then asked if I knew anything about HNT? I looked at him blankely because I genuinly had no idea. He then said helium or crypto currency. I exclaimed no. He then says someone here is doing very well for themselves with their helium hotspot and wanted to get help from them. Apparently you can go to this website and see where the hotspots are and what they are earning. Sure enough there is a hotspot right on top of where I live on the map. Interestingly this pressure has increased with their moving in.

So for those that don't know these helium hotspots shoot out RF for miles and are powered by wifi (or ethernet if your nice). They power Internet of things devices. Examples are a dogs chip, smart bikes, etc. For having one of these everytime someone uses one for these Iot devices the issuer received rewards in the form of hnt or helium crypto currency. The more you have the more crypto you can make. They run around $500 U.S. The map does not indicate how many devices are in the one hotpost pin. However the one they have indicates they are making $900 a month from one of these devices. Unfortunately for me I think they have one or many of these strewn around their condo. Interestingly they keep the shades closed to this room that is right beneath mine and have these very strong lights on. I don't know what else they are doing down there but I imagine its not just for farming helium.

Forgive me if Im not making a whole lot of sense. I am starting to struggle to type this as I am really feeling the pressure (im in the room typing on my Mac which I have located 8 feet from me and a beng monitor 3 feet from me).

I decided to purchase a trifield tf2 meter to see what might be going on. My room measures anywhere from 2.3mg up to 8mg (weighted) depending on where you are in the room. Right now is flucatuating from 2.1 to 2.3 where I am sitting. Last night it was at 10-15mg all over the house measure on the floor (letting the meter rest on the floor and gently moving it with my foot around the whole condo).

When they are not home the emf goes down a bit in my room. In one spot it actually goes down to 0.5mg. I have since moved my bed to this spot. Ironically its pretty close to an electrical outlet. The electrical outlet read nothing unless I have the meter right on it.

I will say I have done some research and I saw where people were experiencing slightly similar symptoms in response to smart meters. We have 8 of them in a shed outside attached to the building no more then 20 feet from my bedroom, then another 8 about 15 - 20 feet from there.

Let me just say I have never been worried about cell phones, wifi, bluetooth, etc until I started to develop these symptoms. I have always been blissfully ignorant and embraced all of this technology. I was always leary of cell phones though and never liked using one up against my head. It was speaker mode from the start if I could. I guess why I am stating this is because I might sound like a hypochondriac, but Im really not. I have read that these smart meters can make people emf sensitive.

I went on the helium hotspot reddit asking if anyone was experiencing any weird symptoms from their hotspot and got mocked. I was just asking and they went on the attack. I should have known better since its the companies sub reddit.

I depend on this room and the computer for my livliehood. Im not always on the computer but I do whats called reselling on ebay. I buy things locally and sell them on ebay. I have to be ont he computer and in this room for about 8 hours at a time sometimes.

I spoke to a neighbor and asked if they were having any symptoms since they are near that bedroom and they said they werent experiencing anything.

Unfortunately I have zero dollars to put towards any kind of emf protection. We want to move but right now it seems places to move to are almost non exhistant and the ones that are available are exhorbitantly expensive.

I should probably speak to this neighbor to see what they are actually doing but I have a feeling I am just going to be met with ridicule. Im not great at confrontation and unfortunately tend to lose my cool way to fast.

I will say this I thought it was just me but my girlfriend sat in my room and said she felt something to. I might try to get another neighbor to sit at my chair near the computer and see how they respond.

My computer is a low power m1 mac and I have never reacted to it. Thanks in advance for any kind of advice.
