this morning, mine was 97.8, then when I got to the doctor's office about two hours later, it was 98.4. She didn't say if being under was abnormal or not.

Im a nurse I'm a Drs office and hear this same story about once per day. When I take it with my thermometer they try to justify that they are 98.6 because they have a fever. Maybe it's possible to have a normally low temp but out of thousands and thousands of patients I can't recall any. Maybe 98.1 is the lowest I usually see. A lot of people claim this but I'm sure it's thermometer malfunction more often than not.

Your body temperature drops a few degrees while you sleep and it takes a few hours for it get back up to the normal temperature.
