Weird pain in head then vertigo

Answered by a doctor

This morning, at work, I experienced a weird pain that lasted a few minutes (maybe 5 minutes). I've never felt this before. Since then, I've been having bouts of vertigo all day. It's not a migraine as I have had those before and know what they feel like. Any ideas?
