Toxic mold and Meneire's disease

My wife started at a company and at the time they owner of the

building was trying to remove mold from certain areas of the building.

After 6 weeks in this environment she started having attacks that were

associated with having Meniere's disease. She now has complete hearing

loss in her right ear, very loud tinittis, daily dizziness and at

times vertigo. She now works for a different company and her health

has improved but she still will have continued problems with Meniere's

for the rest of her life. It seems pretty clear to us that the

Meniere's was triggered by the exposure to the toxic mold, but we

cannot find a doctor who is willing to put 2 and 2 together to give us

a causality statement that it is " possible for this exposure to toxic

mold to be responsible for my wifes condition " . And without that

causality statewment no lawyer will touch us. We have seeked out

experts and on one occasion we were told point blank by a specialist

at Duke that she is unable to ever give a diagnosis resulting from a

sick building, and that she would not be involved in any form of

litigation. Even though in her own journals she has stated that there

might be links between mold and Meniere's disease. I thought at the

time she wouldn't help us because my wife wasn't one of her patients,

so we traveled to see her, and the only thing this doctor wanted to do

was either perform brain surgery or chemically kill her right ears

balance function. It literally came to the point where we were sitting

in her office and she said " Okay which do you want to do? Make an

appt. when you are ready, goodbye. " Can anyone here help point us in a

direction of a doctor who is willing to do the right thing even if it

isn't the easy thing to do? Or know of any lawyers that deal with sick

building or mold cases? Thank you for taking the time to read this.
