I don't know how to explain it other then it made me freaky! The recliner was spinning one way, I was spinning the other, and had the sickest feeling that I have ever experienced.
I remember talking to a friend on the phone and telling him what I was taking.....his reply was that those pills sell for $10 per mg on the street...my response was "You mean people would actually pay to feel that bad?!"
That was one of the most unpleasant experiences I have ever had with medications.

Yeah those suckers are strong. I actually felt really, really good when I was on it (although sick to my stomach) but non functional. No driving, working in the shop, etc for me. And it was odd because I could still feel the pain, but its like I just didn't care enough to let it bother me. When I take Vicodin it gets rid of the pain and I feel completely normal unless I take it on an empty stomach.
When I was a kid I had a problem with my digestive tract that lasted a few years. AFter numerous hospital visits and tests they couldn't figure out what it was. One day it went away on its own and never came back (and 25yrs later my mom still asks me if I have any problems with it). Hopefully your illness will do the same.
Good luck on the upcoming tests and I hope they get you closer to resolution.
