Guest guest Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 Hi folks, My " normal " is 96.9 and like Leanne if I reach 98.6 I'm ill. My PCP listens when I talk and has noted in my MR what my " normal " temp is. BTB I'm a Kaiser baby and Kaiser is converting to an all electronic medical record keeping system. Its pretty much done actually. I am comforted by this because my PCP always knows what is going on with me. Second, an advice or ER DR/RN has instant access to up to date medical information on my chronic illness or other health issues. Hope everyone has found a cyber-cure for their cyber-hangovers from NYE in OZ and goes on to have a wonderful new year. Peace to all.

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 Seems to be very close to where a lot of us are. Funny how we learn something every day. To those who haven't checked when they are " well " I guess I would really suggest they do now because not knowing their doctor could easily over look something by seeing what they consider " normal. " I hear it now " well, you don't have an such and such because you're not running a fever. " And one more piece of knowing ourselves and managing our own care. > > > > > > > > > > > > Well, actually not quite my story today. > > > > > > > > > > > > Yesterday started experiencing some lung pain and my > inspired > > > > volume > > > > > > was down as were sats on exertion.

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 I run 97.6 I think that with this disease we all have a temp. a little low. If I go to 98 I AM SICKmy body just can't take a temp. Love and Prayers, Peggy  ipf 6/04 Florida"Worry looks around, Sorry looks back, Faith looks up." Yes. Every time I take my temperature I'm 96.7. Unless I'm sick and then I may go up to 97.8......Bruce Moreland <brucemorelandgmail> wrote:How did you decide that?

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 It's been a few years I've been running low grade fevers and dr's could not find the cause....they said I had FUV which stands for Fever Of Unknown Origin. Now, I wonder with so many things that my body is going through, which disease is causing the fever... The most funny thing of all...is when dr's ask me, so do you know what's causing your fever/infection....so I go through the list of my diseases and tell him/her, you have a list of choices choose one lol!

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 Yes, you do want to say " shouldn't you be telling me instead of asking me. " We sure have a lot of Idiopathic and Unknown don't we? We know so little about the human body and how it works and illnesses and everything really. The way we look back at the tenth century or so, by another 20 or 30 years I'm sure they will be looking back at us as being olden times when medicine wasn't very advanced. Then wonder how much that we currently say we know will be found to be wrong. Sometimes I don't even know how I feel. It's like...umm.....well.....oh......now that you mention it. It's like me with a car. I know if you turn the key and it starts or it doesn't. Wonder if like the car diagnostics today they'll be able to just hook us up to one machine and diagnose everything? > > > > > > > > > > > > Well, actually not quite my story today. > > > > > > > > > > > > Yesterday started experiencing some lung pain and my > inspired > > > > volume > > > > > > was down as were sats on exertion.

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 When I run a fever it's like being cooked as a chicken in the oven or even being barbecued...that's why most of the time they do special blood tests to see if there's an infection in the blood stream. Irene ---- Original Message ---- To: Breathe-Support Sent: Tue, 1 Jan 2008 9:41 pm Subject: Re: Temperature Yes, you do want to say "shouldn't you be telling me instead of asking me." We sure have a lot of Idiopathic and Unknown don't we? We know so little about the human body and how it works and illnesses and everything really. The way we look back at the tenth century or so, by another 20 or 30 years I'm sure they will be looking back at us as being olden times when medicine wasn't very advanced. Then wonder how much that we currently say we know will be found to be wrong. Sometimes I don't even know how I feel. It's like...umm.....well.....oh......now that you mention it. It's like me with a car. I know if you turn the key and it starts or it doesn't. Wonder if like the car diagnostics today they'll be able to just hook us up to one machine and diagnose everything? > > > > > > > > > > > > Well, actually not quite my story today. > > > > > > > > > > > > Yesterday started experiencing some lung pain and my > inspired > > > > volume > > > > > > was down as were sats on exertion.

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 Well, at least they don't take it lightly. When I was young I got allergy attacks and always hit 103 at least and thought nothing of it, but when I was at my Aunt's she thought I'd die any moment I guess. It was worse than the hospital in trying to sleep because every 30 minutes she was sticking a thermometer in me to find out it was the same thing as before. Now if I hit 100 I'm going to panic. I hit 100.7 one night after surgery and I insisted on medication and respiratory therapy immediately. But then next time they took it I was back to normal. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Well, actually not quite my story today. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Yesterday started experiencing some lung pain and my > > inspired > > > > > volume > > > > > > > was down as were sats on exertion.

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 Bruce, Leanne, Irene et all, I was told from childhood that my temperature is lower than"normal". I can only assume that my Dr. at the time became aware when I was really ill but not "Hot" I have continued that way my entire life. A funny aside...when we were trying to get pregnant 38years ago.I had to take my temperature ( basal temperature) to determine ovulation immediately upon waking up...it was 91-92. The Dr.often asked me " Are you alive?" OK...Too much information ( my kids say TMI Mom) Z fibriotic NSIP/05 Z fibriotic NSIP/o5/PA And “mild” PH/10/07 and Reynaud’s too!!

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 Actually I was just going to say that I almost missed a serious diagnosis because I wasn't showing a raised tempurature. Despite the fact that I was sitting by an open window in just a t-shirt 'glowing' buckets (horses sweat, men perspire, ladies glow ) when everyone else was complaining that they were cold. It took a blood test to show that I had sepsis and I should have had a tempurature that was through the roof.

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 Sorry about blank post. I did a " Zena " . Why is it that somehow we feel the need to hide the fact that couples make love and public displays of affection are looked upon disapprovingly and even displays in front of our children thought of as " grossing me out " but we, as a society, feel free to argue, name call and even scream in public and where our kids are aware. ly, I don't care how embarrassing I might have found it I would have loved to have seen some passion between my parents and to have actually believed I wasn't the only time they did it. I remember plenty of fighting and arguing though. And, guess I'm just radical, but I find even a passionate kiss in public far less offensive than the fact that we've been at war nearly every year of my life. Oh, if I was doing life all over and married with kids today my kids would find me most embarrassing I'm sure, but they'd see the affection of two people in love.

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 I must have been lucky. My parents were affectionate, though not ickily so, and they didn't argue in front of anyone.

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 And what would have been wrong if they'd been " ickily so " ? If they'd just shown you that two people so deeply in love feel such affection that they just couldn't hide it while explaining it wasn't something to be taken lightly? If doing this all again, I'd be " ickily so " . lol. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Well, actually not quite my story today. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Yesterday started experiencing some lung pain and my > > > > > inspired > > > > > > > > > volume > > > > > > > > > > > was down as were sats on exertion.
