"The HUM", a persistent Low Frequency Noise

I am going through the same thing as you are. I also ask my husband if he can feel the vibration or hear it and he can't. If I move from room to room the vibration is still there. I can't believe that I am the only one who can hear and feel it because it is very loud and intense. I have even tape recorded it and I was sure that I would be able to hear it play back to me. Nothing on the recording. I thought at one time that it was our neighbors hottub that was causing it but it wasn't. It's hard for me to believe it is tinnitus because I can feel the vibration. I'm wondering if I am having a mental health issue like I am crazy. I don't know who I can talk to about this without being escorted to the closest psych ward. Its hard to have to deal with this alone. Thank you for sharing. There might be hope.

You are not alone and I don’t think we are crazy. It may have a neurological origin so I suppose the mind might loosely fit the bill. But this could be hormonal as well. Its hard to find s Dr. who will listen and take you seriously. My experience presents with overheating and restless insomnia at night that resolves with a cold shower -contrary to what I would expect … if that's any help.

You are not alone! No one else has been able to ear my hum so far. There is a vibration with mine as well. It was SO loud a few days ago, I thought certainly someone must be able to hear this, but both people I live with said no. Very frustrating. Good luck with yours, but I'm pretty certain it's from some outside source.
