    Fever..
    Hi Denise,
    I get that way off and on, but I'm pretty sure my feeling hot is caused from menopause. Even when I'm not having a hot flash I'll feel warm and then take my temp, but it will read normal. I'll ask my Onc next week if it's normal to feel feverish without having a fever. I'll let you know what he says. In the meantime, just keep taking your temp..better to be safe than sorry. By the way...I do knowtice since having chemo I have a tendency to run hotter than before chemo. I try to stay as cool as posible. Take care..Sue

    Feeling Warm
    Denise,
    I have felt that way my entire life.Never had any hot flashes though. I think it may be normal. I think people sometimes feel cold when others do not as well. My normal body temp runs sub-normal. 97.8 is normal for me so maybe that could explain it in my case. If my temp. hits 100 degrees I feel like crap. That is a high temp. for me and if it hits 98.6 which is normal for most people,I just feel really hot. John(FNHL-1-4A-5/10)

    Fever
    That is so weird, with the fever, my temperatures run way under like this morning it was only 96.0 , what is up with that. So when it gets to normal for everyone else that would be a fever for me. Of course my body is weird.
    lol

    always hot
    My husband says is feels hot all the time...we check his temp and always normal. We also asked the doctor about this and he told us it is due to Chemo (side effect), to make sure he is drinking lots of fluids. I agree, always take your temp just to be safe.

    Take Care.
