Headaches and Body Aches w/ iPad Pro 12.9 2020 Model

I am curious if I am the only one experiencing headaches, dizziness, and body aches when near the iPad Pro 12.9 2020 model. It is quite crazy and scary that every time I am near the iPad, within minutes my body starts to feel aches, starting with a headache. I even tested this one night because I just couldn’t seem to get rid of the aches. So I moved my iPad far away for me before bed, and long behold, soon after, my headache and bodyaches started to go away. And without fail, the next morning when I returned to start my workday, just sitting next to my iPad my headache began began to appear again. Here’s where it gets a bit crazy, this isn’t a typical headache that I am experiencing. Instead it’s a very weird sensation of pain that goes throughout my entire head causing dizziness and a bit of vertigo. That is the best way that I can explain it. I have never experienced anything like this when using a device. While I might begin to feel headaches when I use my iPhone against my ear, what I am experiencing with the iPad is much more significant. Here is another example. This also happens when I place the iPad on certain body parts such as when I’m holding with my hands, it or it’s sitting on my lap, propped up on my knees, etc., causing pain throughout my body - whatever it touches, it almost never fails, I begin to feel pain on that area. Is this happening to anyone else? If so, why are we experiencing this?

You maybe one of the unlucky that cannot be around portable, electronic devices, like smart phones and tablets, and maybe, even full laptop/desktop computers.

Your body maybe ultra sensitive to being in close contact/proximity to the Wifi, Bluetooth and cellular frequency waves and various electromagnetic impulses generated by such devices.

A very serious issue and concern.

You need to contact and consult a doctor and may even need to contact and consult a specialist on these issue.


Stop or seriously curtail the use of these devices immediately, until you get medical attention!


You need a professional medical consultation of these issues, ASAP.


Something like this could be detrimental to your physical health and well being.


Seek out medical help for this condition.


This is a real condition that a small percentage of the population is affected by.



I wish you the best of health and treatment of this possible issue.


Be Well...Stay Well!
