Was this a Brown Recluse, a Black Widow, or was he allergic or what?

Deaths from spider bites are extremely rare, so I understand...

Not sure. I have read that the bite got badly infected and thats what got him, not necessarily the type of spider.

I stink at html, but you can see the photos of his arm here:

It seems to have bitten him in the median cubital vein. I'm beginning to wonder if the bite was from a 5cc "spider" full of meth

Another article said the spider bite brought on flesh eating disease.
