Hey. The paralysis bit sounds spot-on (I've only experienced it a few times, but I know that it's really disconcerting), but the buzzing you hear makes me think of the ringing I get in my ears. My father blames it on loud noise (he gets it as well, and used to work in a trashcan factory when he was in college), but we both experience it. Now, I've had my share of loud noises, but I'm a drummer who always wears ear protection. So I think it's genetic since he and I have very similar skeletal/muscular structures and are the only two in the family to share the condition, if one would call it that. If what you hear is like a ringing (like the ultra-high pitched squeal of an old T.V.) that gets louder and louder as you focus on it, you might share this one.
If that's the buzzing you hear, here's what I do: I get up (I find that sitting isn't enough, I have to be on my feet for at least 10 minutes or so) and listen to a song or two while I eat starches. Bread, noodles, anything of the sort. Usually a PB&J sandwich or something simple. It's an odd solution, I know - but it works for me. Might work for you, if you're in the same boat. I think it has to do with stress, but I can't say for sure. The one thing I can advise is that, while easier said than done, don't focus on the ringing/buzzing.
As soon as you notice it, get up and give yourself some external stimuli to take your thoughts off of it (that's where the tunes and starches come in for me). The more you focus on it and think about it, the more pronounced it will become. I've only experienced paralysis once in this situation, but I did tremble uncontrollably.
Hope that helps.
