I've had mild vertigo induced by an ear infection. It hit me during work so I left my bike, took the train to the nearest station to my house and walked the last mile home. Then I spent a couple hours in bed watching the ceiling spin before my wife got home and took me into the clinic.

It sucks for sure. Once I got the antibiotics things cleared up pretty quickly so I don't really know how long recovery will be for you. It's no fun being off the bike but I consider balance to be something critical for a successful ride and would make sure you're good and ready before you attempt a commute.

Here's hoping it won't be too long.
