    Nothing too serious, fortunately. But I do have recurrent aphthous stomatitis (canker sores), which as I understand are caused by a mild form of triggered autoimmunity against the mucous lining in the mouth.

    This mild form is sometimes able to cause enough pain to ruin a full week or two for me, so I can begin to imagine how bad it is for people with more serious autoimmune disorders.
