Rumbling in Wichita, Kansas 67203
It’s more a feeling of vibration than a sound. Very low pitch. It’s pulsating, but not rhythmic. Sounds like the rumbling of a train off in the distance or a large vehicle idling. It’s always worse when I have sinus congestion. I’m so glad to find out this actually exists. Thought I was going crazy. This has caused so much distress, especially with doctors saying it’s all in my head.
