Hello,
so I have just learned that CFL bulbs fall into the category of producing UV light, including perhaps some UVB in the case of black lights.
I have had a black light bulb and a blue CFL running in my bedroom for almost two years now. I often fall asleep with the lights on, sometimes nude or nearly so...
Given what I have read about these in relation to cancer, I am now feeling very worried about the health risks. I am a 22 year old male from Canada, in otherwise pretty good standing. I have had fluoroscopic exposure to x-rays when I was younger during 5-6 voiding cystourethrograms which adds to my worry. That's on top of average amounts of other plan x-rays and things like that.
Anyways, this is the only link to some info on the exacta bulb I had in my room for the time:

Can anyone help me to better understand how (or how not) dangerous being exposed to two of these bulbs for hours each day is?
