Docs and other esteemed experts of the OT: tell me about my temperature

I've been sick over the last few days so I've been monitoring my temp. My "healthy" temp is around 95.3. What does this mean? Do I have ice water running through my veins and can't be bothered, or do I have the AIDS? Thanks

it means your thermometer is broken.

I'm leaning towards the AIDS

You’re borderline hypothermic

Your thyroid is dead. Or your thermometer is broken.

It's been like that ever since I can remember on many different thermometers. I doubt they were all defective.

or he's an idiot that doesn't know how to take his temp.

Time to take it rectally to be sure

Well since the standard number of smart arse responses have been posted, 98.6 was an average temperature of a study of about 140 people in the 19th century. What we now know is there is a wide range for a normal temperature

You do realize that your boyfriend's penis is not actually a thermometer regardless of what he says?

It would seem crazy that every one of us would have the exact same body temperature when healthy.

It just means you have a lower than average temperature. Mine stays around 97.2
98.6 is just an average.

Your blood needs changing. Around every 5 years your blood loses its ability to properly do its job, and your temp will slowly begin to decline. Once you get to 92 you only have a couple weeks
Start by finding a good vein, and start draining all your blood out. Once this stage is complete, report back for further instruction.

Answer the question...are you saying there are 10s of thousands of people that have a sustained body temp of 100 or over?
Because, someone in the thread said 98.6 was an "average" which means many lower and many higher..
I'm no doctor, but I'm lead to believe those higher temps would cause other severe issues if sustained at that level

My normal temp is always pretty low too. Not quite that low, though. I’ve just always been that way.
