I spoke with one of the top allergy specialists in Calgary about palytoxin. There is no evidence in the world wide database about palytoxin death except by eating triggerfish.....

Some people are more allergy prone than others and may be reacting to any of a number of things.
Use caution if you feel a danger. I know people allergic to saltwater.
