Hi bloke!
Mouth sores (dunno about gum pain per se) can be directly associated with autoimmune diseases and can be a reaction to Chemo drugs such as the Cytoxan which I assume you're still on.
I sometimes get mouth sores too. They aren't painful though and go away in a day or two. My suggestion would be to rinse with some warm salt water a few times a day. If it sticks around much longer or gets too annoying, it might be an idea to visit the doc. There might be some other cause or maybe a medicated mouthwash your doc can recommend.
Hope it gets better soon mate!
