Is there an illness referred to as over active immune system?


My brother in law's boyfriend, a hypochondriac, now says he has an over active immune system. I briefly researched this on webmd and only came up with auto immune disorders, a list/group of immune disorders, with lupus topping the list. So, is there an illness also referred to as over active immune system?

not that I have heard of, he probably has an overactive imagination

He must be talking about auto immune disorder. This is when your own immune system attacks your body. Ask him if that's what it is and what specific disease he has. Is it Lupus, multiple sclerosis or one of the other many auto immune diseases. That way, you'll know if he's making it up because all of these disorders do have a name I believe.
