A member asked:

YES.: While there might be a diurnal variation in body temp, (lower when you first wake up and higher late in the day) all of your values are normal. The range of variation you notice (98,8-99.2 F or 37.1-37.3 C) is less than 1% which is within the range of error of virtually all thermometers, whether digital or analogue.
