vertigo back advice needed please

After having several colds for the last two months and quite high stress levels I have developed vertigo. (Balance not right I have had this before 12 months ago it lasted 6 months) This time I have been told 2 other people at work have also been diagnosed with labythrititus. So maybe a virus. I have had it now a week and at first kept really active trying all the balance practice exercises. But I started to get really bad headaches which were completely disabling given cocodamol and most recently advised to take aspirin by Gp. I don't want this to last and don't know whether to rest or keep moving. I am seeing my own Gp on Monday. What should I ask? I was wondering about asking for a blood test. To see if it's viral. But if it is then what. I'm not sure it does me any good to know this or not. The Gp s I've seen so far have not really been that concerned. I saw one for vertigo snd they gave me betahistine and I saw another about head aches out of hours as it was really really bad. He gave me Co coda mol . And I spoke to one on the phone when Co coda mol was not working. She said take asprin. I have noticed that I feel more unbalanced with the headaches. I want to get to the bottom of this but I don't know what to do and terrified secretly that this might last a while. Hence me talking to you guys on this forum. I hope I might wake up and it's gone but incase it's not what action can I take? Any help advice gratefully received
