My personal blood temperature has always been quite low. Normal
temperature for me has been 97.2 degrees Fahrenheit, over a degree from
'normal'. at a checkup at the doctor's today, my measured temperature
was 96.2 degrees (-2 1/2 deg!), "Guess you don't have a fever" says the
nurse. While I don't feel really 'chilled' in any way, I am wondering
if having consistent low blood temperature can be harmful. Should I
wear more clothes or turn the heat up in the house? I realize that I'm
not a lizard so the prior two actions might be ineffective, I'm just
slightly concerned.
Thanks,
