A low hum in 92592

low vibrating hum sound with almost a rhythm to it that quickens at times, from 3 longer sounds with a pause to more rapid sounds. Sounds like a distant motorcycle or helicopter idling or a very low subwoofer, but it's like I feel it to my core. It isn't constant every day, but it happens frequently and right now I am hearing it very strongly. It almost makes me feel sick...like motion sick. It's hard to concentrate and it's making my head hurt. find a way to make it stop please. it's making me feel crazy

Low frequency hum, always same frequency, I'd estimate around 50hz (at least my perception). I only hear it at/in my home, if I'm at another location, I don't think I've ever heard of it.
