I want to give a big thanks to the NAVY for flying that beautiful Blackhawk helicopter this morning over the M-1 Canal. Such a thrill to see right near our house. That's the second one I have noticed in just 2 weeks. With no military bases near here, except for AUTEC at Palm Beach International Airport, that's pretty amazing, I think. One has to wonder why they have to fly so close to residential neighborhoods if they are just en route to wherever... God forbid if one of those where to have an engine failure and crash. With the HUM being stronger in this area I am concerned about that possibility. Maybe they know it's not going to affect them...

I'm not sure if someone has posted similar, but I thought I would add this to the discussion.
I have a feeling that what I am about to describe doesn't apply to your situation, but one never knows,
so I will give it a shot.

I was reading a psychology book recently, and a Dr. described a patient who was simply hearing the natural hum/buzz of blood flowing in the ears, yet could not ignore it like most other people. So it can be a psychological
thing. Again, I am not saying this is what is happening to you, but just another possibility.

I personally experience very loud ringings intermittently, at random, and I have asked others if they can hear it as well, and of course they can not. I have narrowed it down to, and I could be wrong, fluctuations in blood pressure. I am not sure of exactly what happens, and maybe someone with more knowledge could explain it on a deeper level.

I did not see your response to the question of whether others can hear the hum as well. I was going to suggest attempting to record the humming sound to determine whether or not it was caused from internal or external stimuli, but if no one else can hear it, you can assume it is internal.

Well that is about all the knowledge I have on the subject. I hope you figure out what is causing the noise, and if it is a medical issue, I hope you get it checked out and that everything works out for the best!

The Hum is very selective, approximately 5% of the population "hear" the noise, almost all are aged 50 or over, and 70% of these are women.

Don't bet on this statistic, just that most of the men that have this issue say nothing.

I don't believe in stats to much.

Agreed. I'm female, but was only 38 when I first heard the hum. It stopped for me for a long time, but this past winter I did get plagued with ultra low frequency vibrations again for a couple of months. My husband and I think this time around it was due to military aircraft flying high above cloud cover. It would be worst around the 3a.m witching hour for these sounds and sounded like thunder that pulses over and over. We are not around any military bases or airports so I don't know why they do some pretty noisy maneuvers over my neighborhood from time to time. Once some really noisy jets flew low over my street and just circled around for awhile. Just what you want on a quiet residential neighborhood, Uncle Sam showing off his toys.

Please, stop this fear mongering crap. How many times have ATS posts said that we were doomed. I'm still not dead.

First time poster here. Been lurking a long time. I live in Dallas, TX and I have been hearing the Hum/Ringing in my ear for about six months. My experience with the sound is as follows, Either left or right ear. Starts loud, lasts for about ten seconds then fades. It started out with about 3 a day. Mostly in the mornings. I am now around seven a day at all hours.

With the ear ringing I developed migraines. I've never had a problem with migraines. I had a brain scan in January. Came back normal and they sent me out the door with medication. There have been only two times that the ear ringing was loud enough to cause slight pain. Enough to grab my ear instinctively. The migraines are bad. I'm usually popping Excedrin Migraine every other day.

It seems to have gotten a bit quieter starting yesterday, or I just got used to the current level and it doesn't bother me as much.

We live in MA. We started hearing this noise in 2006 when the high speed internet DSL broadband and Wi-Fi were turned on in our town. This was not present before then. I have lived in my home since 1999 and there were no issues of noise like this. Other residents have come forward who hear the noise. We do not have any natural gas in our town or public water and sewer. We are on septic and propane. We don't have cell towers in our town, but that will change in the near future. We have tracked this noise in many towns and cities that we have lived and vacationed in. The timeline the noise started was the same time the high speed broadband and Wi-Fi rolled out. It is the exact same noise we are hearing in all these areas we are familiar with.
