Is it common for the temperature of the body to escalate to 99.2 -99.4 each afternoon? I have tracked it for a while and it starts out around 98 degrees in the morning and reaches low-mid 902 from about 4-6 then back to normal around 7.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Your body temperature is never completely stable. However, how much it changes depends on the person. If it does that to you every day and it doesn't cause you problems, then I doubt it's a big deal.

Your body temperature rises during the day due to greater activity. At night and in the morning your body is cool because it's not doing as much!

My temp was 97 this morning and I felt flushed. I have felt like this for a few days but more tired today and confused. I dont know if that is a low temp or is it normal.

I wake up like that often, yesterday morning I had to wear a jacket, gloves, and UGG boots for 2 hours. Temp was as low as 95.8. All though I do have a auto immune diease. I am often bothered my the low temps. This happens often to me.
