Yes: That is normal. Your temperature is not constant throughout the day. It does vary by up to 1-2 f in a 24h period.

Friday when I was at work I started feeling really lightheaded like I was going to pass out. When I checked my bp it was 150/90 something with a HR in the 70s. My Bp typically runs low to normal. Could this be stress related?
