A member asked:

What does it mean to have a low body temperature but don't feel sick?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably nothing: If you have low thyroid hormone you may run lower than normal body temps, as well as if you have been out in cold weather for a long time period. It would be helpful if you told us what your temperature was, and how you measured it.
