In the last few weeks I've noticed after about 500m of backstroke or more, when I go upright I get REALLY dizzy. No other stroke has this effect. If I do less than 500 or so, there's really not a problem. Anyone ever had this problem? If so, are there remedies? Would using earplugs help?
Sounds like in addition to the throat and ear infection, maybe you had some sort of virus. That could explain the fatigue. Hopefully that's all it was and you won't have any more problems.
If you do continue to notice vertigo when you tilt your head at certain angles, you might do some reading on BPPV (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo):

yeah, that's me. i had all the tests and that's what i have. they also thought i had menieres. although i have an "old" condition, it all goes back to the blow on the back of the head.
an olympic diver also has bpv. can u imagine.?
