Specializes in Pediatrics

Anxiety: Not concerning. In adults, body temperature below 100 are not considered a fever. Basal body temperature changes with activity, ambient temperature, medications, time of day and even hormonal fluctuations. If you are finding yourself stressed or anxious, try taking a walk, exercising, deep breathing exercises and meditation/prayer.
