did i blow my turbo

ok well merging onto the high way i was in 4th gear speed up some to get in the lane and the car jerked some and then my boost gauge fell to 0....lost all the turbo power...car wont boost.....when i drive it, it just sounds like air is getting sucked through the turbo and straight out the blow off valve....thats the only way i can explain what it sounds like.........so my question is.....did i blow my turbo?
