A member asked:
My temperature is 97.6-98.3 in the morning but spikes to 99.0-99.4 around 4pm-6pm but goes back to 98.6 around 8pm. is this normal or low grade fever?

Perfectly normal: Your question could be used to teach medical students about normal body temperature. 98.6 is not the only normal temperature, just the average. Everybody's temperature varies like yours, typically lower in the morning and 1-2 degrees higher later in the day. A range of 97 to about 99.5 is just fine. You don't have a fever.
