Mycotoxins in Wood Pellets

[Bunglehock]

Hello all!

Can I ask if anyone has come across acute and subsequent chronic reactions to Wood Pellet dust? My partner was exposed to a high volume during a delivery process back in January and is still suffering from a burning sensation in her throat and beneath her jaw (mainly on one side). All GP initiated testing has drawn a blank so far as diagnosis is concerned. My research seems to confirm that Mycotoxins could well be present in wood pellet stores that can become airborne if delivery into a boiler's hopper is poorly managed. Does anyone else have knowledge of similar occurrence?
