#1Beating - according to http://www.poemuseum.org many believe that when Poe got to  Baltimore he had been robbed because he was wearing cheap and i'll fitting clothes. This lead to people thinking he got beaten, with what and by who, they wouldn't know. This isn't even hard to believe considering the fact that when poe got to the hospital he was slipping in and out of consciousness.
#2 Epilepsy - is a disorder that is also called seizure disorder and is caused when a nerve cells activity is disturbed, this causes seizures, hence the name seizure disorder.
#3 Dipsomania - other known as alcoholism, was also suspected as a cause of death for Poe.This was probably speculated because it was well known at that time that Edgar was a alcoholic. It showed in his writing and it showed in his real life so, it had to be considered that he could have died due to that.
#5 Toxic Disorder - another probable death cause is Toxic disorder, which is a series of physical disorders that are caused by toxins such as acute alcohol intoxication and lead poisoning.
#6  Hypoglycemia - more commonly known as low blood sugar. This causes drowsiness and can make a person shakey. It makes sense that he could have had low blood sugar fainted and got a concussion and that was the reason he was falling in and out of consciousness.
