In 2005, WHO said it's unlikely to actually be the result of electromagnetic fields:
"EHS has no clear diagnostic criteria and there is no scientific basis to link EHS symptoms to EMF exposure. Further, EHS is not a medical diagnosis, nor is it clear that it represents a single medical problem."
" ... symptoms experienced by some EHS individuals might arise from environmental factors unrelated to EMF. Examples may include “flicker” from fluorescent lights [and visual-display units]" (both of which are becoming things of the past as magnetic ballasts and cathode-ray tubes are falling our of favor)
"Treatment ... requires ... a psychological evaluation to identify ... psychiatric/psychological conditions that may be responsible for the symptoms ... "

If there's more-current information available, I'd certainly like to know about it.
Please, no wisecracks about Abbot & Costello.
