Are cell phones dangerous?

[KimSteehouder]

If my doctor told me that cell phones were dangerous and that I shouldn't use my cell phone, I would first ask him why he thinks it's dangerous. So I want to know his arguments. But I don't think I would really leave my cell phone at home. Nowadays everybody has a cell phone and it's a important tool the be connected with your environment. And if something happens it's very usefull that you can call somebody. Besides when they developed the cell phone they would have examined if the use of a cell phone infects your health. If it was very bad for your health it would probably not be on the market nowadays, because products have certain standards to proceed.

If my doctor told me not to use my cell phone for a long period, I would first want to know why he wants me to do that. I want to know his arguments. Based on his arguments I would decide wether to use or not to use my cell phone.

Now I think that I wouldn't plan to use my cell phone for a long period of time. Because it's a way to stay in contact with your friends, nowadays everybody has a cell-phone and you get very used to it. If something happens it's very usefull that you can call somebody and to be reachable. Besides a cell phone wouldn't be on the market if it was so bad for your health.

I'm against people who use their cell phone when they're driving. That can cause accidents because you're not paying attention while you're driving. So I think it's a good rule of the government to forbide this.

I can not imagine my docter saying that to me. And if he does say it? I would ask him to give me his sources. I would really want to be sure that I am not using my phone for a good reason.

[steffie]

i guess i would listen to my doctor because it's for my own health and that is really important to me, but he really have to convince me that it's necessary, otherwise i won't do it when he doesn't has a good reason to let me stop using my cell phone.

I do believe cell phones are not as safe as we think they are. According to the European Parlement, several scientific studies showed that electromagnetic radiation from cell phones are very harmful. There is a strong possibilaty that radiation and the arise of brain tumors have a connection. But only a few precentage of people are hypersensitive to these kinds of electromagnetic radiation. So it's hard to forbid the use of a cell phone when not everyone is in danger. It's also difficult to examine everyone who is sensitive to it. Though it can be harmful, i do not believe cell phones will ever be forbidden to use. It is such an important gadget nowadays. I think the only thing the government is able to do, is setting up campagnes along with the message not to have a cell phone near your bed while sleeping. Maybe that could help?

[MnonF]

I would agree to using the phone less when the doctor says I am hypersensitive to it, but my phone will never be entirely out of my life as many would confirm it too.

It depends of the consequences. If these are dangerous, I would go to another doctor for a second opinion. If he would give the same advice I would agree.

[bernievhegelsom]

If my doctor would tell me not to use my cell phone, first I will ask him why. If he gives me a reasonable explanation and it will be scientifically investigated, then I will believe him, otherwise not. I think that cell phones aren’t dangerous. But if they are, I’m willing to reduce my use of cell phones. If it is dangerous I will use it as less as necessary, but I won’t put it away forever. Because I need a cell phone for my social contact: this is also important for my quality of life.

[Tine]

First of all I would like to know why my cell phone is dangerous for my health. I wouldn't just listen to the doctor, I would like to have some more information about it. And if it is very important not to use my cell phone because for example I can get very sick of using it, I would agree with the doctor. He knows what he is talking about and what's good for my health. It would be very difficult not to use my cell phone but maybe we can come up with a solution.

Hi

Frankly, I don't know.

But i think i should do as he told me specially that we all know that the cell phone has a it of bad effects on our health but it became as a life need now.

[veer]

A study by an cancer expert shows that cell phone use could kill more people than smoking, it is reported. So that means cell phones are dangerous. If I smoked and the doctor would recommend quit smoking, I will stop. That's the same as using my cell phone.

[cecilecremer]

I think it would be very difficult to follow his advice.
My cellphone is really precious to me, i don't go anywhere without it, at night it lays next to my pillow and during the day it will be with me all the time.

But if my doctor would tell me it's really dangerous for my health and i have to stop this behaviour, i think i would do it, but it would cost me some afford and time.

Health is more important to me then everything else.

I would find it quite difficult to stop using my cellphone. I use my cellphone always and everywhere, at night it lays next to my pillow and if i forget it, i''m really moody.

But if my doctor tells me it is bad for my health and i really have to quit it, i would at least give it a try, because i believe health is more important then everything else.

[Elmay]

If not using my cellphone would be much better for my own health, I would agree with my doctor and not use the phone. I would only do this if it really makes a huge difference, because a cellphone is very important.

[RaquelBK]

If my docter told me not to use my ell phone for a long periods of time, I should agree. I trust my docter and he wouldn't tell me nonsense. Of course it depents of the disease because I can't live without my cell phone.

[Liekeh]

First of all i would have asked him, the reason why? afther that, when he has a good reason i will put my cell phone away, and i will found something new.

[noon]

if my doctor say that i will do!

becouse the cell phon very dangeures that true!

it's difficult. yes i with you but you must do

[ginothehague]

you can get diseases from so much things, what does it matter if you can get a diseas from calling by a cell phone

[ramonahendriks]

First of all.. Why would he say that?
I almost can't imagine a life without cell phone. I have my cell phone always with me.
But if he's really serious about it, and my health is dangerously in trouble if I keep using my cell phone.. I would follow his advice. How hard it's going to be.

1. As I read in a Newspaper that using Cell phones excessively particulary through their right ear- it badly affects their listening power and causes permanent pain in the right ear while telephonic communication.
2. On the other hand it was mentioned that the left ear has ability to listen more than as compare to the right ear.
3. And also The cell phone towers/pillars from which the cellphone take coverage/signals if it is near to someone's home so the rediations/waves of the towers affects the young females womb and after marriage causes problem in child birth.
4. When we use cellphones so we mostly get headache, it was mentioned that we get some kind of rediations/virus in our mind, and we have to put our head on floor/earth so the earth could grab/catch those from our head.

P.S: Not my personal idiology, I read it in a newspapers long back.
