Low dull sounding hum, but with a vibration also. Sometimes its steady and sometimes like _____. _______. __. ____. Like broken up. Sorry, hard to discribe. I live in a rural area. I am a housewife, so I am home most of the time. The question about conditions asked for me, siblings or parents, but if its helpful, my nephew is Autistic, my maternal grandmother was schizophrenic (diagnosed) and maybe bi-polar.

Has this happened to you?
Write it down while you still remember the details. We will look for the others.
If this reminds you of something a friend or a relative told you once and never mentioned again, send them this page. Reading that a stranger described the same thing is usually the part that helps.
Nothing is tracked back to you and nothing is sent on your behalf. The link is just the page you are reading.
