Woman living with hum so bad she has lost job may get an answer

A woman who has been living with a background hum so bad that she has lost sleep, lost her job and has turned to listening to Coldplay to block it out is hopeful experts will now find the cause.

Yvonne Connor's home has been the centre of an investigation by Environmental Health experts who are due to deliver a report within weeks.

Yvonne, 51, who lives in Holmfield, near Halifax, says she feels 'exhausted' due to disturbed sleep which she says has caused severe stress and a knock-on effect on her physical health, reports YorkshireLive. Yvonne said: "It's really hard because I don't sleep properly for about three nights in a week. I wake up at 2am, 4am, 5am and I can't get back to sleep."
