I have a problem that wears me out. Please help!

I have low fever for four years. It begun after a serious infection (possibly by coxsackie) followed by two pneumonias. After that my temperature remained at around 37,6 C, so for six months I had all kinds of blood tests, cardiological tests, and MRI, which revealed a 4,5 cm arachnoid cyst in my left frontal lobe, that's actually missing, but no explanations for my fever.

My temperature performs an interesting daily cycle: I wake up every day at 35,6 C then it rises for about two hours to reach a 37,6 C.

I don't know how much longer I can cope with that problem. If you have any ideas, please, tell me.

:confused: Hi. What do you want to cope with? Being too hot? What are you already trying?

Well Lily I was wondering if anyone had any idea about what might be causing it. Feeling sick every day for four years isn't easy. Especially now that summer temperatures where I live reach 40 C. I've tried all possible tablets (aspirin, paracetamol, etc) but they don't do more than drop my temperature by ,2 C for a while...

Do you have other symptoms? I have this, but I also have fibromyalgia and possibly Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Both can be triggered by a serious trauma, or illness. What do you suffer from that makes you feel sick?

It's pretty typical for your temperature to rise during the day from your basal (waking) temp. Head over to the TTC (trying to conceive) board for a whole bunch of messages from women who religiously pay attention to minute changes in temp! :)

For example, my temp goes from (farenheit) 95.5 to 97.5 in the morning (depending on where I am in my cycle), but will be 98 to 99 in the afternoon. This is because I'm active (I'm using that term loosely, mind you!) and this raises the body's temp.

Is it possible that your temp is just naturally higher? There is a wide range of "normal" out there.
