This is where you feel like the room is spinning, you get very dizzy, and feel like throwing up - very sickening situation. Is most often caused by inner-ear problems, usually mis-placed tiny pieces of calcium.
It can often be self-treated at home, by using the "Epley Manuever". Youtube has videos on how to do it. For stubborn cases, you might need to seek help from a professional.
The best otoneurologist I've heard of, happens to be here in SAN. He invented a machine that very effective. It's a fighter plane seat, complete with 5 point harness, that's mounted on gimbals, and controlled with a computer. It can turn you on any plane, 360 degrees and brings on the vertigo, then they can fix it.
