that was a curve following the whole back side of her head..behind her ear, she had to have tumors removed that were caused by her cell phone.

I thought this was just propaganda to scare us! Her specialist said he is seeing more and more of this and has become common. Her tumors were not cancerous.

Anyhow, she said she would have the phone practically glued to her head for an hour drive to work everyday.


Interesting huh?

Oh, it also made her eye droopy because of the nerve being damaged.

I so wanna drop my cell phone and never use one and I probably would if I didn't have kids but I need to be accessible. I do try to not hold it too close to my head though.

And they know they were caused by a cellphone how? Other than her word of course.

There have been studies showing a correlation between cell phone use and weird cancers. Problem is they have been woefully scant in controlling for other cancer agents. It isn't unusual for early studies to have these issues, in fact, these studies just spur the research heavy weights to do their own studies. We should have some solid findings in the next year or two because I know of two different risk research centers (one US on EU) that are looking at this now.

I wouldn't be surprised if there is some connection, in extreme cases of use.

"Always in moderation" is my approach to anything anyone even hints might be dangerous. With cell phones, I frequently speak on speaker, I use the car speaker system when driving which keeps the phone away from me, I move it between one pocket and the other, and I don't hold it to the same ear every time.

I'm also a wee bit compulsive, so I can't expect that approach works for everybody...

On a positive note, more people go back to landline use!
