Pensioner is 'allergic' to microchips A pensioner who suffers from blinding headaches when she goes near computers or hi-tech equipment has been told she is "allergic" to microchips. Joan Stock, 79, is unable to shop in supermarkets, watch colour television, travel on public transport or in a modern car and she cannot cross a road at a pelican crossing. Her life at home in Saltford, Bristol is stuck in the early 1970s - together with husband Roy, she watches a 25-year-old black and white TV, drives an elderly Ford Orion and shops only where manual tills are used. Mrs Stock said: "It has got worse and worse over the last 10 years. Everything has computer chips in it these days. It is very frustrating because I am so limited to what I can do and where I can go. "It is also very frightening because it is an unbearable pain that is completely out of my control." Her allergy has been diagnosed as a reaction to the electromagnetic radiation generated by microchips, The Times reports. Simon Best, editor of Electromagnetic Hazard And Therapy, a health journal, said: "A significant number of people are reporting some kind of electrode sensitivity." >>>I wonder how she feels about chip analysts.
