(LIN) - According to PEOPLE.COM, Nick Cannon reports that the mysterious ailment that put him in the hospital in January and February on two separate occasions is similar to the degenerative autoimmune disease lupus.

He spoke with PEOPLE Wednesday night about finding out.

"The blood clot thing was probably the scariest because ... I've known people who have passed away from that."

Cannon told PEOPLE that for now he is just trying to put his health first and is home taking it easy. He stepped down from his New York-based radio show in February to help with his recovery.
