What Causes Dizziness When I Turn My Head?

Based on how I feel, think I have Vertigo. When I turn my head too quick and sometimes when I stand I am dizzy for a few seconds. I visited my doctor a week ago and was told I have fluid and was told to take otc allergy meds for seven days. Still have some dizziness and occasionally some pain deep in the ear. Also, based on what I read as symptoms, there is heavy sweating with little activity. Does this sound like vertigo? I had a severe bout of vertigo approximately 25 years ago that did not completely clear up for several weeks........help!
