Meningitis induced Vertigo

Diagnosed 3 weeks ago with vial meningitis. This was after having minor flu like symptoms for a week followed by a severe headache for two days that subsided. I then had a temp which brok and i felt fine. The next day began vomitting for 4-5 days and appeared to have vertigo which induced the the lat time i vommitted. Went to ER was diagnosed with viral meningitis. Have not vomitted in 2 weeks can eat anything. However still feel light headed and have vertigo like symptoms. Feel almost normal if i can sit still lying still watching TV seems to be the best. How long will i have this and is this normal. I have exactly 4 months to get back to work or i am homeless..
