A low hum in USA, Hamilton

Non-stop hum/vibration that started 5/12/2017, 196 Hz I would like to have access to a website that reports progress in identifying or possibly eliminating this horrible sound. I would also like to find out more about Dr MacPherson's frequency blocker and whether it is available for purchase. Should I ask him personally?

What they reported

First noticed: 2017

Pitch: It is impossible for me to distinguish between, say, 190 Hz and 200, but 196 matches what I hear on the piano.

Loudest: During the night

Where: Indoors

Symptoms: Ear discomfort (pain, fullness, throbbing);Insomnia;Anxiety

Changes with weather: It is softer in winter, starting about Dec. 1, and louder starting mid-May. The frequency does not change.

What stood out: a low hum

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.

Low, soft rumble - as if a large truck were idling in the distance - it varies, but not rhythmically - I can almost "feel" the vibrations. Most predominantly at night, in the bedroom on the

Low hum, sometimes pulsating, sometimes not. It is very loud. It sounds like a propeller airplane way off in the distance, but it doesn�t go away. Or an 18-wheeler on a busy freeway,
