Sensitive nerves after spinal surgery? Wifi signals?
Posted , 3 users are following.
Hi everyone, thank you for reading
My dad thinks the metal rod attached to his spine is causing Wifi signals to give him migraines. When he comes over to visit, after about ten minutes or so, he will tell me a bad headache is coming on and he’ll ask me to turn off the WiFi. He definitely looks like he has a headache when he asks me this. He has spoken with a neurosurgeon who told him that they could theoretically remove the rod, because there are just clips somehow holding the rod in place, and perhaps without the rod, the headaches would improve. My dad is considering having very major surgery in hopes that he will be able to tolerate WiFi again. This just seems crazy to me. Hoping someone reading can give me some ideas
Can Wifi cause migraines like this? Could nerve damage be doing this when he's around certain types of waves or signals?
Thanks again!

I think the best solution is for him to get the rod removed to see if that helps. I don't know about Wifi.

There are several possibilities, but there is a lack of information. What kind of rod? What is it made of? There could simply be pain caused by the location of the rod. By moving and being out around. he alters
his normal state and could cause pain that way. Can WiFi itself cause a headache? You would need to know the makeup of the rod and whether or not it is conductive. If so, is it enough to vibrate it just a little so the 'signal' that the rod receives stimulates nerve sensation to that degree?
Some people with metal fillings sometimes get radio broadcasts
