I was bit by the recluse two years ago (commonly called a fiddle-back) it destroyed my anti-immune system and I've had a varity of side effects, most notably extreme joint swelling...I don't think as much is known of the effects of the recluse bite as is other venomous bites...I can tell you it took over a year to get feeling decent again, and I still experience joint pains during periods of humidity...I never was afraid of spiders before, now if I see one, I run, then call the wife to stomp it!
