I sure do know the scariness of being dizzy, Nan. It ruins your ability to orientate yourself at all, and lying down with eyes closed is about the best one can do. Sometimes watching TV lying down used to help me, too. I can't remember the name of the drug they tried on me when I had labyrinthitis (illness of inner ear bones and such) but it didn't do much for me, I didn't think. Using a cane to help balance on the way to the bathroom was helpful to me, as well. Or hanging onto the walls, if available.
I do hope this is a passing thing, and that you will recover faster rather than later. Also happy to know others have caught up to you and can help you and keep eyes on you. Welcome back!
