Alasdair,
I dramatically reduced my HF-EMR exposure using Swiss Shield netting and new double glazing. Levels are down from ~ 5000 microwatts per metre to about 0.5 microwatts per metre beneath canopy [800-2500 Mhz]. Outside canopy in bedroom ranging from 0.5 - 5 - 10 microwatts per metre.
I have Electrocloth [with earth wire] under sprung mattress, with ripple foam on top of that. However, I am measuring rapidly fluctuating 0-1-0-1 Volts per metre when holding LF-meter in bed. The reading, if I touch the netting with end of meter, is 3-4 Volts. This is despite earthing.
I took the canopy down last night because of tingling and acheing back.
Please advise. Thank you.

Sorry for lack of replies to previous direct questions about earthing canopies, etc.
It sounds as if you have done all the right things. Your ELF e-field readings are low. 0 fluctuating to 1 will just be the zero noise on the instrument. All the normal meters are +/- one digit at zero and +/- 3 digits at normal reading levels +/- a full-scale calibration error (usually c. 5% by specification).
The 3 to 4 V/m when touching the netting indicates that there is a residual field, but a very low one. The meters all over-read when very close to a conducting surface - at least 10cm distance from any surface is recommended. You could try earthed aluminium cooking foil pads beneath each of the bed feet, to stop e-fields from the floor traveling up into the bed structure. The under-mattress sheet will not stop the bed structure form carrying the e-field potential from the floor.
I am really surprised that such low ELF fields are giving you problems. I suggest that you re-investigate RF and microwave field levels and quality as well, in case they have changed.
I wish you the best of success. Do remember to drink plenty of water-based fluid. Summer is often worst for ES symptoms as people generally become less hydrated. Also, you could try using a hypoallergenic baby skin moistening fluid.

Thanks Alasdair,
I will have a look at the RF levels again and also the earthing.
The base of the bed contains 2 wooden drawers. With wheels screwed to bottom of wooden base unit. The bedhead is raised off the floor with a length of 6 x 6 inch wooden post fitted with wheels.

I think that you need to put an earthed sheet under the whole of the bed. Cooking foil (or better catering foil) would be the cheapest way to test this out.
