Sounds to me like an ear infection - which can cause vertigo and nausea - and the dehydration resulting from vomiting can cause chills. Mild ear infections usually resolve by themselves, with no treatment at all - and many people don't even know they have them because if they're mild, there's often no actual pain in the ears.
When you say "self treat" I can't help but wonder how the treatment is any different upon consulting with a physician. There is no treatment for COVID now other than treating for the symptoms if at home. If in the hospital, intubation and ventilating machines are used, as we all know, for the severest cases. If you contract the virus, you will also be self-treating unless you need the help of respirators etc.
