You should ask your pacemaker clinic to request the help of the manufacturer of your pacemaker who will be able to advise on safe levels. Tests that I have done have indicated fairly low levels even if standing directly under high voltage pylons. Your precise job will have an effect on the levels you experience, but I would not be too concerned. regards Lindsay -- ************************************************************ Lindsay Grant Medical Physics Department Royal United Hospital Bath BA1 3NG UK tel (44) 01225 824086 fax (44) 01225 447535 email L.J.Grant@bath.ac.uk ************************************************************ From owner-emf-bio@net.bio.net Mon Oct 19 23:00:00 1998 Path: biosci!biosci!not-for-mail From: amarino@lsumc.edu (Marino, Andrew) Newsgroups: bionet.emf-bio Subject: Powerline Report Date: 20 Oct 1998 11:13:00 -0700 Organization: BIOSCI International Newsgroups for Molecular Biology Lines: 19 Sender: daemon@net.bio.net Approved: afrey@uu.net Distribution: world Message-ID: NNTP-Posting-Host: net.bio.net A report dealing with the issue whether powerline electromagnetic fields affect human health can be accessed by following the links from http://www.ortho.lsumc.edu/Faculty/Marino/Marino.html ---------------------------- Andrew A.
