You should immediately file a worker's compensation claim for benefits with your employer. These benefits include ongoing medical treatment. temporary disability benefits and a settlement for permanent disability and cost of future medical treatment. I can refer you immediately to a forensic toxicologist for an evaluation. Feel free to call me at 213-388-7070 for a free consultation.
