Blood Pressure, Jaw Pain, Anxiety, Atrial Fibrillation, Increased Sensitivity

We bought a brand new house in March 2013.  Five months later in November 2013 I was searching why I had been having trouble sleeping, had very severe TMJ, my husband had extremely high blood pressure and we both had heart palpitations. We were shocked to find that we had a smart meter installed on the wall behind our TV room, which is the same wall where our bedroom is.   I had been following the smart meter installations in California and Chicago because a friend was having some health problems after having smart meters in her neighborhood even though she did not have one on her house.  We were unaware that smart meters were being installed in Macomb County, Michigan.  

Here are some of the problems we have had since the smart meter was installed: 

EXTREMELY HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE: After spending a lot of time in the room where the smart meter is on the outside wall watching TV I had to rush my husband to the hospital where they were UNABLE to get his blood pressure under control even after three different medications and an intravenous BP med. He is now on blood pressure medication. He never had a blood pressure problem prior.  In fact it was a joke between us that I would take my blood pressure which has been high for years and his was always 120/80. 

ANXIETY:   I feel very anxious about the smallest details of our life. This is totally out of character for me. I am usually smiling, happy and positive.  I have a reputation as a problem solver, caregiver and being “in charge.”

Muscle Spasms, Insomnia, Tinnitus, Mental Fog

In November of 2010, DTE installed a smart meter on our home.  This was done without our prior knowledge or consent.  We were not aware of the installation of this meter until April of 2011, when I observed it while doing yard work.  The meter is mounted on the exterior of our home 3 feet from my head when I sleep at night.

During the winter of 2010-2011 I began to have health concerns.  For the first time in my life, I was unable to sleep through the night.  I would awaken nearly every night with muscle spasms in my lower extremities that required my getting out of bed to walk around my home to relieve them.  In addition, I regularly woke up between 3:00 and 3:30 AM, unable to go back to sleep.

I had developed tinnitus in 2003.  My tinnitus began after a cell phone tower was built on the corner of Hickory Ridge Rd. and Rose Center Rd. in Rose Township.  This cell tower is 1.5 miles from my home.  After installation of the smart meter, my tinnitus symptoms increased dramatically and these symptoms persist to this day.

During the winter of 2010-2011 I became chronically fatigued and found that I had periods where I was unable to think clearly or remember things in the manner to which I was accustomed.

Installation of the smart meter resulted in another problem for me.  After the installation of the smart meter, I began to suffer severe reactions from my cordless phone.  I was not aware of the toxicity of the cordless phone until after the smart meter was installed.  I began to lose my hearing from talking on the cordless phone.  My ears were making copious amounts of earwax to protect my inner ears from the damage that the cordless phone was causing.  I now have corded phones in my home and do not use a cell phone.  This has helped, but I still suffer from raging tinnitus.

Pains Do Not Subside, Poor Sleep, Uneasy Feeling


I live in Washtenaw county. My smart meter was installed ____, 2013, while I was not at home. Before this time I was told it would be installed while I was home, which I requested. The first of two symptoms became evident almost immediately after they installed the smart meter, which was difficulty in getting to sleep and when I got to sleep, I would wake up several times during the night. I still have this problem. This is accompanied by a constant feeling of moderate uneasiness.

The second is, in the past I would do something to cause muscle/joint pains and then stop doing whatever it was I was doing then and over time, the pain would subside, but NOT NOW.  The pains start and never go away.

Can't Fall Asleep

DTE installed a smart meter on my home in ___ 2014.  Until that time, I was a very good sleeper, easily getting 8-9 hrs a night.  Since the date the smart meter was installed in 2014, I have experienced an increasing loss of sleep. Gradually over the summer months of 2014, I would lay awake for 1-2 hours unable to sleep. It has gradually increased to....at this time I am losing a serious 3-4 hours each night; laying awake, unable to sleep!  This is seriously affecting my lifestyle.

I live an organic lifestyle; drink only purified water; eat organic foods; and exercise.....so to have this radiation-emitting device forced on me is unconscionable.
