EMF Side Effects of Breast Cancer Radiation: My research into how exposure to electromagnetic fields affects the heart was challenging because the information was difficult to find, and many of the studies were either vague, outdated, or lacked sufficient information.
Therefore, I write this from personal experience in addition to my findings. Years after having a total left mastectomy at age 35, I recently learned that my heart condition was likely brought on by radiation therapy. I used my background in healthcare to illustrate how detrimental EMF is to our health and well-being.
MY EXPERIENCE WITH EMF SIDE EFFECTS OF BREAST CANCER RADIATION
The first significant clue: I went to my annual physical on November 16 in the late afternoon. I had previously had normal blood pressure and cholesterol readings. My doctor called attention to a slight elevation in my blood pressure and advised that we pay close attention. She made an appointment for me to return in six months, so it’s clear that she wasn’t all that concerned.
A few hours later, I felt severe chest tightness, so my husband called 911. I was given cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) by an EMS dispatcher inside the ambulance, which caused a few broken ribs but kept me alive. After being placed on a heart pump in the emergency room, transport to a significant teaching hospital in a larger city was in order.
After a brief introduction, when my medical team arrived in my ICU room early the next morning, I was initially asked, “Have you ever received radiation therapy?” Following the question, there was a discussion of my past. The major announcement then followed. “Your heart is seriously damaged.” “Surgery is not a possibility.” “You must heal on your own if you want to live.” Those were scary words, indeed. I’m mentally strong, so I survived. I have now been diagnosed with coronary heart disease.
THE RISKS OF EMF TO OUR HEALTH
This year, the risks of EMFs to our health and well-being came to my attention as a marketer and blogger. According to my research, few people are aware of the potential health concerns posed by the devices that keep our world running. Having taken hold of the subject, I feel obligated to share my findings.
Our health is affected by the invisible energy waves from our power lines, phones, microwaves, other appliances, Wi-Fi routers, laptops, electric cars, and other EMF products. Anywhere electricity is utilized, both at home and at work, electric and magnetic fields (EMFs) are created. Furthermore, concern over possible negative health impacts from these fields is rising.

And many people are concerned about the effects of 5G.
5G is the fifth generation of mobile networks. Its purpose is to connect everyone and everything, including machines, objects, and gadgets. 5G makes a new type of network possible, and wireless technology gives more users faster multi-Gbps peak data rates, low latency, improved reliability, a huge network capacity, and a more consistent user experience.
“The radiation emitted by 5G will largely be the same as previous networks, except that it will be exposing us to something called millimetre waves for the first time.” ARTICLE HERE. I urge you to read how 5G will impact our lives.
EMF SIDE EFFECTS OF BREAST CANCER RADIATION
As science and technology advanced, it became clear that many diagnostic and therapeutic tools, such as X-ray, CT scan, and radiation therapy imaging systems, gave off EMFs. Learn HERE.
Uncertainty surrounds the link between long-term cardiovascular risk and breast cancer radiation. As mentioned, my research findings are sparse.
However, according to the meta-analysis, patients receiving left-sided radiotherapy as opposed to right-sided radiotherapy, as well as individuals receiving radiotherapy vs. those not receiving radiotherapy, had higher risks of coronary heart disease and cardiac mortality.
Moreover, radiotherapy for breast cancer exposes the heart during treatment. Studies indicate that the risk of coronary heart disease increases with ionizing radiation.
There ARE More EMF Complications Due to Radiation Treatment. It’s Radiation-Induced Loss of Muscular Mass. ATROPHY!
A few years after that prolonged stay in the ICU, I experienced another incident. It was June 28. I worked with my marketing students and drafted blogs. My day was normal. However, I remember being in the bathroom at night, feeling lightheaded, and murmuring something to my spouse while lying on the floor. I was put into a coma to keep my brain from swelling. After 18 days, I was told I had a cardiac shock. (Watch for my forthcoming post.)
On July 23, arriving home, I looked in the mirror and didn’t recognize myself. Damage to my left side was visible from my left eye, lips, neck, shoulder, and chest. It was severe atrophy. Additionally, my left arm’s range of motion was severely limited. I later learned that my radiation treatment for breast cancer contributed to my condition. It was a preexisting condition that was exacerbated due to the coma. I was diagnosed with denervation and atrophy after three MRIs and a consult with a neurologist.
I’ve learned that up to 80% of people who get radiation therapy will get radiation-induced fibrosis. Radiation-caused fibrosis in the skeletal muscle leads to muscle loss, weakness, less mobility, more illness and disability, and a lower quality of life. LEARN MORE HERE.
Radiation Therapy Risk Factors for the Development of Lymphedema
I developed lymphedema after the mastectomy. I was told that removing all my lymph nodes around the breast area was the cause. All these years later, I learned that radiation therapy was the risk factor as I researched EMFs, Radiation Therapy, and Breast Cancer. You will find numerous articles if you search Google.
