ELECTROSENSITIVITY: USING AN IPAD COULD MAKE ME MISCARRY AGAIN
A mother-to be has told how she cannot go near an iPad in case she suffers another miscarriage due to her intense sensitivity to electromagnetic waves. Pretty Hannah Metcalfe suffered a miscarriage in November 2010 that she believes was triggered by being made to sit beneath fluorescent lights at work. Now 11 weeks pregnant again, the mum-of-one cannot use a mobile or cordless phone, go anywhere with wifi internet access or use one of Apple's best-selling gadgets. She suffers from a condition called electrosensitivity which she believes was caused by using sunbeds every week as a teenager while under doctor's orders to cure a skin condition.
