Recently on the news they said that tests had been done and they decided that they did not! But given time these facts could change of course as do a lot of other tests. My sister in law passed away from a brain tumor and she had never used one!

I'm sorry about your sister in law. So sad. It seems that it is a rumor, according to what everyone has responded. I'm glad about that. Thank you for answering so many of my posts.

I have heard this also but what can you do? We may as well curl up in a ball and not do or eat or drink or breathe anything as just about everything seems to have a carcinogenic effect on someone somewhere. I think we should just live life, as if it is our last one on this earth.

So why do we use them if this is true? It is scary. I have received so many responses about this, and most of them said it was a rumor. Thanks for responding.

It's supposed to, but I've used a cell phone for at least 6 years now, without any problems.

I don't think it causes brain cancer, otherwise WHO will state the dangers of using cellphones due to the high frequency radio waves it emits. Find me one genuine news from the medical community that this true with evidence suggesting such occurence. I don't think you'll find one.
