Today I was 500 meters into my workout when I experienced the sudden onset of vertigo when my feet touched the pool bottom at the end of a 100m drill. The drill was 25m streamline kick, 25m right side kick, 25m left side kick, 25m streamline back kick. I had completed the drill 3 times. I took a break and tried to just swim freestyle but had to stop after 40m. After an hour, the nausea began to pass. Six hours later, I still feel queasy and have no appetite. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Did you have double vision at any point during or after the drill? or was it just that the combination of turning from one side to the other and then on your back that made you dizzy and queasy? The double vision thing is important.
