Strange vertigo like symptoms please help

I've had at least 8 maybe 10 attacks in the past 10 years:

It seems it can be at any random time : However it is about 1 or 2 a year (Intermittent)

I can feel it coming on, or beginning to start.

It reminds me of description I have heard from epileptics who say they know

when its about to happen and they lay down or prepare.

I can literally feel it beginning and then it hits full force..

First is the slightest of dizzy/disorientation (Vertigo) which only is a small delay,

but then it goes to the extreme world spinning terror.

My eyes also begin to exhibit rapid movements back and forth (Nystigmus)

I close my eyelids and feel them as they jump left to right, 2 to 4 times a second.

When I get up i cannot really control my legs or arms I stumble around mostly (Ataxia)

At that point, I then suddenly begin to sweat (Perspiration) and start to feel sick (Nausea),

I have to go to the bathroom immediately, but not to throw-up, but I have to

evacuate my bowels, sometimes I throw up too.

It's like at my stomach the peristalsis amplifies below my waist, but reverses above it.

This condition continues and slowly decays over a period of 24 to 36 hours.

After I come out of it, I am physically drained and mentally depressed or sluggish.

It takes up to 3 or 4 days to fully recover and be back to my normal self
