Good luck. I went through a worker's comp case that took forever and ended without much satisfaction (1994). I now work as a school nurse where I am able to pretty much control my environment. I doubt you will find an attorney to take on the latex glove companies or the hospital- all are pretty powerful and it requires a large investment from the law firm. I would ask to be retrained for a non institutional job such as school nursing or legal nurse consulting. Don't forget all the foods you are now possibly allergic to as well.
