I've been reading up and found that Mycotoxin poisoning can cause PN symptoms. It is a mold that attacks the body and causes a host of symptoms. One would have to test specifically for it by a lab that specializes in it. I guess it can be consumed (via foods) or breathed (via contaminated air).

Has anyone heard of this before and how "common" is it?

Everytime you drink alcohol/ beer/wine aged whiskeys, you consume potential toxins from fermentation.

Science News had a huge article about other molds that we breathe in or consume. Actually we all have some fungus inside us and on our skin. People with impaired immune systems, will have fungus suddenly turn pathogenic. But normally our immune systems keep them down.

This is a huge subject as any Google search will reveal.

Here is just one example explanation of aldehyde toxicity:
