Dear Sandi;

I am utterly astounded by this! The doctor needs to read this 2 articles:

G (2006) Body temperature variability (Part 1): a review of the history

of body temperature and its variability due to site selection, biological

rhythms, fitness, and aging. Altern. Med. Rev. 11: 278-293.

GS (2007) Body temperature variability (Part 2): masking influences of

body temperature variability and a review of body temperature variability in

disease. Altern. Med. Rev. 12: 49-62.

Best regards,

I was speaking to him about the fact that I'd been running fevers lately and

that it was worrying me. He asked what my temperature was and I stated that

when I'm not sick I run a 96.8. He interrupted me and told me that ALL people

were 98.6 and that I could not possibly be a 96.8. I repeated again that I was

a 96.8 and he again told me that was impossible and that everyone was a 98.6. I

tried to (politely) argue with him but he shut me down.
