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.

so, just use latex free which are readily available...

YDI for more than likely being a virgin.

Ydi lol... you know you didn't develop a sudden latex allergy bet you never had sex so went to the bar... this was your chance miss fat **** McGee was wasted and hence this is your first time using a condom but you prolly got warts instead of an allergic reaction lol

it's no biggy. just show your medical note to the lab head or the head of your school and they will arrange for nitrile gloves or some other latex free gloves to be available for you.

So what? Don't you know about nitrile gloves? They're the purple ones, and most hospitals use those anyways just in case a patient is allergic.

Nitrile gloves? Latex ones suck anyway.

Damn! You're just one year away from having a social (and sex) life, when you find out you can't use most condoms.

Well I guess you will get used to riding in the waaaaaaambulance then. Seriously latex allergies are so common that every clinic and school and hospital has a latex free option.

that sure sucks! a Classmate of mine was also allergic (well, she's at least sutyding laws instead of medicine right now, lol)
