So its been almost a year now that we've been hearing a constant low humming sound. At first I thought it was coming from in our house. I've checked all electrical and water and gas and all seems fine. If/when the power goes out in the neighbourhood I can still hear it, so dont think it's anything in a neighbours house (Exhaust Fan or Aquarium pump?) ... It actually sounds like it's coming from outside (like a diesel truck idling in the distance) but when we open a window or go outside we cant hear it (gets lost in all the other ambient noise).

We're in the Derry/Scott Area and I THINK its coming from the Hospital after all the renovations. New ventilation system or something. I've asked my neighbours about it and they dont notice it. I thought maybe it's my ears or something (Tinitus) but my wife can hear it from time to time as well.

Anyone else hear it? :)

I had the same problem several years ago. It was just in my left ear and was a low end frequency that vibrated my ear drum to the point that I thought it would rupture. The fact that nobody else heard it was frightening. I felt like I was being targeted. It was most prominent at night. I looked into it and found out that approxematly10% of the population has had the same experience. There are multiple theories as to why but I’m still not sure why it happened. I told my doctor and he said I’m not the first person to have this problem. It eventually stopped after about a month with no explanation. If it persist I would go see your doctor and tell him about it. Best of luck!

Hmmmmmmm, that’s a tough one. Good luck sourcing it.
