Today, I discovered that I have developed a latex allergy. I'm a third year medical student. FML

So? Most hospitals have stopped using latex gloves, anyway.

Yaaay, nitrile! (The smell is considerably better too, and doesn't cling to your skin as much.)

AWWW shit, that sucks! I'm a tattooer and we use latex gloves too, it would be most annoying to develop an allergy after only a few years...luckily there are alternatives, but I would definitely be pissed! Hope you're alright and didn't have a severe sudden shock :/
