TL;DR Summary
Is it possible to affect nervous system with EMF?
Hi guys, I found this group while researching something, I was hoping you could help me with some queries. Is it possible to affect people’s health/ nervous system using radio waves or electromagnetic field in some way? I have heard of the "Havana Syndrome" and I was wondering if this could be possible on a smaller scale. I believe something similar could be happening to me but I’m not sure of how or if it is possible. I would be very grateful if you could help with these enquiries.

An on-line forum is not a great place to get medical advice. I'd suggest you see a specialist (neurologist).

You should see your doctor. In the discussion, concentrate on the symptoms and not guesses as to the causes.

The evidence for this can be fairly characterized by adjectives like "speculative", "anecdotal", "unconfirmed".... So unlikely that any amount of internet research is going to tell you anything that is useful or actionable.

If you are concerned about medical symptoms that you a personally are experiencing, you should be talking to a doctor not an internet forum.

Thread 'Did they discover another descendant of homo erectus?'
The study provides critical new insights into the African Humid Period, a time between 14,500 and 5,000 years ago when the Sahara desert was a green savanna, rich in water bodies that facilitated human habitation and the spread of pastoralism. Later aridification turned this region into the world's largest desert. Due to the extreme aridity of the region today, DNA preservation is poor, making this pioneering ancient DNA study all the more significant. Genomic analyses reveal that the...
