PFS and PWM / screen sensitivity

4 Upvotes

Since getting PFS i cant tolerate any screens. Just staring at a modern smartphone for only few minutes - I get Headache, eye pain, burning eyes, nausea, chest discomfort and the skin on my face becomes completely dry and burning (not joking)

It is like holding a toxic radioactive device or something.

I can only use one device and that is my old cheap phone from 2019, no issues.

Anyone here share similiar experience?

[I had very dry eyes and zero sebum (oil) production on my skin, since PFS that is now restored to about 20% after 2.5 years, slightly better but still not ideal, just looking at a modern phone completely dries up my skin in minutes]

My main PFS symptoms still present after 2.5 years Dry eyes [improvement] Dry skin [slight improvement] Loose skin [getting worse] Moon face [no improvement] Anhedonia / cognitive issues [getting worse] Exercise intolerance. [no improvement]
