I get a stinging burning, shock type feeling in the head, somewhat akin to touching your wet tongue to a 9-volt battery.<br /><br />I am so glad this subject came up as I have been intensely studying the effects of electromagnetic radiation and the thermal effects as well. Having been burnt deeply throughout my abdominal tissues from an ultrasound, and having experienced severe pain during the procedure, I started with a call to a radiologist...who was ignorant for the most part. Then to the professor who taught my ultrasound tech. Then with the information I learned, searched the Internet. Boy have we been lied to about the safety and risks of such devices and procedures. At the same time I have been researching MRI's since I need one (or do I ?) and have had a terrible experience with this device in the past. What I have learned is incredible. The public has been lied to for far too long regarding electromagnetic radiation/fields, and not fully told about the risks of "thermal effects". (Thermal effects will vary according to the amount of exposure, and an individuals capacity to dissipate heat)<br /><br />Interestingly, the MRI tech at the facility I was going to, didn't even know the power level I would be subjected to. Nor was he trained at adjusting the machine, but relied on the machine to make all determinations for what exposure level a patient would have to EMR (government documents speak against relying solely on the machine's decision for CT's so I imagine the opinion would be the same for MRI's)<br /> Basically, by the calculations I would be exposed to 500 watts of Microwave radiation for 25 minutes for the cervical spine, 40 minutes the thoracic, and 25 minutes for the lumbar. Now your average microwaves run 700 watts for the small ones, and the larger ones average 1100 watts. So take a raw egg out of it's shell and subject it to 1/2 power for 1 minute and see how it turns out. Now then, imagine that is your blood plasma, blood cells, brain tissue, delicate nerves, internal organs etc. So should the small thinner neck area which contains your thyroid glands receive the same exposure as the thicker areas of your body ? Add to that a coil to intensify and concentrate the EMR to a specific area.<br /><br />Now some persons dissipate heat better than others, so exposure to such types of radiation will affect some more than other people. But we have radio frequency to deal with too. Since the brain also operates on frequencies we must consider possible effects. Remember, your nerves operate with electro-chemical signaling.<br /><br />I will not dismiss cell phone or portable home phones as totally harmless. Just keep the conversation short and use the landline.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6592607595936297457.post-62503612051419749412011-06-19T11:30:17.173-04:002011-06-19T11:30:17.173-04:00As far as I can tell, the alleged dangers from ele...As far as I can tell, the alleged dangers from electromagnetic fields comes from basic ignorance of the physics, and making things up. The past alleged dangers from high voltage lines were pseudoscience, and as far as I can tell, the same is true for alleged cellphone dangers.<br /><br />The difference between radiation capable of breaking chemical bonds (high visible, ultraviolet, etc.) and microwave radiation is the same as the difference between a bullet and numerous gauze balls. Each photon has an energy proportional to its frequency, and microwaves have far lower frequency.<br /><br />Albert Einstein received the Nobel Prize about 90 years ago, for this principle, the photoelectric effect.<br /><br />Someone described microwaves from the cellphone as cooking the brain, the way microwave ovens cook food. That was nonsense. There is a huge difference in intensity. That would be like visible light reflected from surfaces cooking the same as conventional ovens.John M.http://johnm2.typepad.com/blog/noreply@blogger.com
