Try taking the valium, and see if you can at least feel a little calmer.
The vertigo could be from an inner ear infection, which can be transient, but could last for some weeks. I've had that, although not as severely as you. It is a really frightening symptom, and can be quite persistent.
When you panic about something, that can exacerbate any symptoms--esp. something like dizziness or lightheadedness. So start with something for anxiety, and when that kicks in, you can reevaluate the symptom.
I'll be checking tonight.
Best, Jost
