I am suspicious of dubious assertions offered in the language of science, especially when it appears that an interested party is trying to elevate one questionable subject (electro-sensitivity) by conflating it with a more credible subject (chemo-sensitivity).

My purpose in responding is to urge people to seek a diagnosis if they display symptoms, both for their own sake and for the sake of anyone whom they might give bad medical advice based on their own interpretation of a poorly-demonstrated phenomenon.
