Never had it myself, but have worked ER nursing for a decade now and have seen it many times. Most people say just what you are saying, the worst feeling in the world. Even the slightest movement of the head leads to severe dizziness and nausea. As the doctor probably explained, the center of equilibrium in the human body is located in the ear, and when it is inflamed that equilibrium is distorted. Usually treated with medications such as meclizine (anitvert) which helps control the dizziness but is not a cure. I hope your bout is short lived and that you are feeling better quickly.
