Do YOU believe cellphones are a health risk?

Have you or someone you know suffered health complications as a result of cell phone usage?

The debate concerning cellphone usage and cancer has been waging for years now.

And to add fuel to the fire, the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer announced yesterday that cell phone radio waves are "possibly carcinogenic" and may increase the risk of glioma, a certain type of brain cancer.

While both health and communications experts are debating the findings of this new piece of information, we decided to ask you, the consumer to share your views regarding the same with us.

Do you know anyone who alleges health complications as a result of using a cell phone excessively?

It need not necessarily be cancer, it could be anything from migraines to dizziness or ear-aches.

We just want to hear about physical experiences you or someone you know may have undergone that may be linked with cellphone usage, however strange they may seem.

Write in to us with your stories to getahead@rediff.co.in (subject line: 'Cell phone Health Risks') along with a photograph, if possible and we'll publish the most interesting ones right here.
