Sewer Gases

I have worked in a sewer treatment lab for 11 years, thats where my office is and I have an opened drain on the floor right by my desk.  I have been getting sick to the stomach, headaches, confusion legs swelling and lymph nodes plus other symptoms.  They refuse to get me another office.  I think they should get sewer gas testing.  I have been working from home and don't want to go back in there.  I need to know if there are anyone that does sewer gas testing in pennsylvania?

Call your local fire department and ask them if they will test for you. A lot of departments will since sewer gas can lead to health problems depending on the concentration levels.
