Re: Wild Variations in Temp

[Guest guest]

Carol,

I have both a digital and regular (mercury free) thermometer. They

both seem to give me the same reading. Be sure that when you take your

temperature that you haven't had anything to drink that would make your

mouth warmer or colder, and that you haven't eaten, exercised or

showered in the past 20 minutes. Sometimes I take mine more than once

just to double check it. In the beginning, I had huge swings like you

described.

If you really feel it's not accurate, by a regular thermometer and

compare.

That is not only possibe but quite normal. Temps should start really low

when you first wake then rise slowly through the day peaking in the

early evening then lwoering again towards ebdtime.

I know some have had good luck with digital thermometers, but the ones I

tried are junk. My temps are still all over the place, but I know the

thermometer is acurate! :-) I have started carrying a timer with me that

beeps when it is time to take my temp. This has helped more than anything to

help me remember. :-)
