The following are postings related to electropollution moved from LAF Forum IX as they are of general interest.

I do want to go back to something Tom said about not having a cell phone. A neighbor of mine is an employee of AT&T, and he says it is vital that you get one (preferably from AT&T). It might help your afib, but even if it doesn't, it will make it easier for you to make an appointment with an EP who can help your afib. So I am not claiming a cure but you stand to benefit. ROTFL
And by way AT&T and Verizon both performed extensive studies that proved conclusively that cell phone radiation is not hazardous to one's health. Texting while driving is a different mattter.

EB -if you were the CEO of ATT, Verison or any of the othe manufacturers.... and you learned that there was harm or a potential for harm in your mega-zillion $$ revenue, what else would you publish in a statement? There is no way that people today are going to give up their wireless so you aren't going to hear about it in the US... however in Europe, it's different and from that information, there are awareness groups advocating for the dissemination of the facts as a protective and preventive measure.
Some time ago, the posts on Electropollution and the health risks involved ...including AF ...were offered as a result of concerns for children exposed at early ages to these harmful EMFs and EMRs...and others who are experiencing health problems that have not been resolved... including an increasing prevalence of insomnia. Integrative Cardiologist Stephen Sinatra left his practice to become an Awareness Activist on the many harmful effects since he obseved them first hand when his son nearly died as a result of electropollution.... It's all there. The idea is to be smart about exposure... it's unavoidable and here to stay. There are remedies such as grounding or Earthing that help reduce the effects and replace the lost electrons. Today, there are many highly-qualified scientific experts weighing in onthe cell cell damage problem and especially damage to DNA.
Oh, and by the way, I did not address this post to you... but wanted to point out to both Toms that the fibrosis issue was likely a very large influencing factor in their inability to resolved the ongoing afib. The electropollution plug was a reminder of just another element that doctors aren't likely to be considering since they all are 'wired' themselves with cells and WiFi office/hospital equipment.... but that doesn't mean we shouldn't be aware and taking steps to reduce exposure.

Jackie,
In the interest of being proactive, here is a link to a company that promises to protect you from harmful computer and cell phone radiation: [www.radiation-robs-your-life.com]. Dr. Carlo and his Bioenergetics Science sounds very similar to some of the guys that you and Erling have recommended. I didn't see anything about afib in this material but he does claim new 41 cures ranging from diabetes to jet-lag. Give me some of that!
Please note to readers: this is satire. I think Dr. Carlo is a quack out to make a quick buck. Please don't buy anything from him.

George Carlo, PhD, JD is anything but a quack. Commentaries about his research, studies and book are in the Electropollution post but a quick summary in online video is a revealing look at the situation as explained in a brief 2008 interview (Canadian TV) with Dr. Carlo on EMFcell phone dangers and the rising concerns in the scientific community over the risk of having young bodies exposed to prolonged lengths of daily time and cumulative over their lifetime… uncharted waters. But as Dr. Carlo points out, already in the adult population, they are seeing more cases of brain and eye cancer. That was four years ago.

Another INTERPHONE study says increased risk of brain tumors with high radio frequency exposure.
January 6, 2012. It is turning out not to be a good year for mobile phone users and for the naysayers who are trying to convince everyone that mobile phones are safe.
The long-awaited Cardis study, published January 2, 2012 in Occupational and Environmental Medicine (available online since June 2011), concludes that there is an increased risk of glioma (a type of brain tumor) in long-term mobile phone users with high RF (radio frequency) exposure and a lower risk for meningioma (a tumor of the membrane surrounding the brain). Indeed the risk for meningiomas was statistically significant in one analysis (after 7-years for group with highest exposure that included 21 cases and 51 controls).
This study, unlike other studies, attempted to estimate the amount of radiation at the site of the tumour.

Incidentally, one of the highly visible and active crusaders for disseminating information about the risks of wireless radiation is Magda Havas, PhD…also mentioned in the Electropollution post. She is respected world wide for her research. She has been focused in Canada on alerting school systems to the dangers of young children being exposed continually to wireless radiation from school installations.
Magda Havas is Associate Professor of Environmental & Resource Studies at Trent University where she teaches and does research on the biological effects of environmental contaminants. Dr. Havas received her Ph.D. from the University of Toronto, completed Post-Doctoral research at Cornell University, and taught at the University of Toronto before going to Trent University in Peterborough, Canada.
She has given talks in more than a dozen countries on her research and provides expert testimony on the health effects of electromagnetic pollution as they relate to occupational exposure, high voltage transmission lines, magnetic fields, and both cell phone and broadcast antennas.
Dr. Havas has been an advisor to several public interest groups and educational groups concerned with the health of the environment. She is currently science advisor on EMF-related issues to several non-profit organizations including: The Canadian Initiative to Stop Wireless Electric and Electromagnetic Pollution (WEEP Initiative); the Council on Wireless Technology Impacts (CWTI) and the EMR Policy Institute (EMRPI) in the US; HESE and the EM Radiation Research Trust (EMRRT) in the UK; International Commission for Electromagnetic Safety (ICEMS) in the EU; and the Nationaal Platform Stralingsrisicos (NPS) in the Netherlands

This can be continued in a separate thread in the General Health Forum where the other links can be found as well.
As it relates to arrhythmia, refer to the findings by cardiologist Stephen Sinatra, and the detrimental effects on the body from all sources of electropollution.
He says this about EMFs… Some radio frequency (RF) emissions are now known to directly affect heart rate. A recent study showed that exposure to cordless fone RF (and comparatively, WiFi) directly increased heart rate, even causing tachycardia and increased sympathetic nervious system activity (adrenal response), as demonstrated by heart rate variavbility (HRV) measurements. Wireless RF emissions also suppress HRV. Grounding or attuning to the Earth’s natural electromagnetic potential, can counteract negative RF-related cardiac effects by balancing autonomic nervous system activity(as shown through improved HRV).
At his heartmdinstitute website, he has tips on safer use of cell phones.

It is difficult to follow some posts because they keep moving. But indeed this has nothing to do with LAF.
Anyway, before anyone starts ordering snake oil from Dr. Carlo, they should research this further. He admitted in one interview that he did have a cell phone and that he did use it frequently.
He's a quack.
