It seems that whenever I use my computer, I feel kinda sick. Is it me or is it that the computer's radiation is affecting my health?

Naturally, we want to know if being around computers 8 to 10 hours a day will jeopardize our future health -- will it cause cancer somewhere down the road? No one can say with certainty if the radiation from computers could or could not harm us. Research on the health effects of electromagnetic radiation from other sources shows that there may be some impact at the cellular level. However, much of this research has failed to produce definitive results that could subsequently be reproduced in other laboratories.

One study done a few years ago sought to determine if radiation from computers raised the incidence of miscarriage among employees at a large company. In the end, they didn't find any deviation from the norm in terms of number of spontaneous miscarriages in the general population. The American Physics Association issued a statement within the past year to the effect that no conclusive evidence exists to support the idea that the low levels of radiation emitted by computers poses a health risk.

but it does cause eyestrain especially when you are not used to it. It could make you really feel a bit dizzy. Try relaxing your eyes when you feel sick or look at something color green for a few seconds. I suggest using cool colors such as green when reading something from the computer, it's much cooler to the eyes. *winks*

HEY!!!
Its not nearly as bad as it used to be. My original 386, That was 1978 I think, anyway, it used about 20 times as much power to run the monitor than it does today. Newer ones are shielded. The computer itself is running on a lot less power too.
Now, do you have a flat screen monitor? It might have to do with the setup and refresh rates.
I hope this actually makes sense to you.
