I'm sorry, you're wrong. Nighttime is when the government takes over the masts to send out signals to reprogramme our brains. We're most susceptible when we're asleep. Living so close to the mast, I'd recommend OP sleeps inside a Faraday cage before she becomes the servant of the lizard people.

The Faraday cage might have been done in jest, but as it does block all radio signals, then maybe OP building one around her bedroom could mean she has better sleep and somewhere to go to escape when she needs. Irrespective of whether the syndrome is real or the signals, it may help OP sleep better - at the very least there is the placebo effect.

I wonder what the building regs for Faraday cages look like and will she have to have it signed off by the council??

why would building regs be needed? Would you need them to rewire a bedroom, or replastering it?

I suppose if she is a leasehold there may be restrictions in doing a permanent alteration

I remember watching a Horizon documentary which looked at this. They put a group of "EM hypersensitive" people in a farmhouse and erected masts outside. The asked the people to report any symptoms, and unbeknownst to the people, the masts were on some days and off others. Symptoms were regularly reported even when the mast was off.

Google can be your worst enemy at times, especially when you type in symptoms of how you feel and it throws up various possibilities.
These things then stick in your mind, which can make the problem more psychological, causing sweats, insomnia, panic attacks etc.
I would get checked out by the doctor just incase there is an underlying medical problem which has no relevence to the mast.

Sorry but there are no links to pylons and childhood cancer! That theory has also been dismissed.

It's probably just the stress of sleeping in a new place.

There have been experiments done with people where neither the tester or the perceived suffers know when the room is being pumped with EM (double blind test) and no one has ever demonstrated a real ability to sense when its on or off.


There may be something else making you ill, so yes go see a Doctor, but no one has an ability to feel EM. If you're really worried you could put your bed in a faraday cage and see what happens

Proof, if we need it, that some of us experience the world through different eyes.

If things go really bad (i.e. no help from anyone)....

1. Start lining the inside of your flat in tin foil (make sure it is completely covered in all the corners!)
2. Wrap yourself in one of those tin foil blankets whenever you are in the flat.

Don't forget:
3. Wear a tin hat at all times...
