Re: Reoccurring Low Grade Temp

[Guest guest]

I also run a low grade temp when I am having a flare up. I talked

with my doc about this and he said that when I flare up it is an

inflammatory process and our bodies will fight that inflammation the

only way it knows how, low grade temp. Amongst other things. A

fever is not considered medically significant until it is above

100.5f. However what I have always wondered is that basis is made

on the " normal " temp of being 98.6. Well that is not the normal

temp it is the AVERAGE of normal temps. I for one generally run on

the lower side with MY normal temp being about 97. So I think for

me to have a temp of 100 should be considered medically

significant. But thats just my opinion from my little corner of the

world. Ihope that helps.
