The worst hangover is the nervous delirium tremens style hangovers you get after drinking REALLY hard. The ones where you feel nauseaus and nervous, like you're going to lose your mind at any second. The kind where you can't sleep. They can only be cured by sex, dope and more booze. Or anti-anxiety meds.
I had one hangover in college where I got sweaty, felt like I was going to have a heart attack and had to leave class to catch my breath outside. That was terribly unnerving.
I never get physically debilitating hangovers, excpet that sometimes I'll have an elevated heartrate for a few hours the next day. Oddly, sometimes I'll get the reverse, where I'll have a resting pulse around 50. Depends on what I drink, I guess, and whether I smoke a lot while drinking.
The severity of the hangover is inversely congruent to the number of previous days you've been drinking heavily. On a good run, by day three I am not feeling shit. If there's a bit of weed around, I'm bulletproof.
