If this is not addressed you will soon have the dreaded pile of poop under the toilet and another plug to clean out.
The valve itself might still be functioning and the seals are melted. But with the possibility of melting damage on the valve itself I would probably just spend the extra $10 to replace the entire valve.

I want to try and set the techs up for when I can be there, but want to know what I might be dealing with in advance.
