Temperature issue?

Hi Guys,

I don't now if I am over-reacting or not (probably), but I thought I would throw it out there. Two nights ago I ran a low fever of 99.1 for about three hours until I took some Tylonal and it went away. Tonight I was feeling a little icky again and checked my temp and it was at 99.1 again. However, by the time I felt a little icky and checked my temp and then checked again 15 mins later it was down to 98.8. I'm wondering if it is my burned up skin and throat causing small temps occasionally? 6 more rads to go....

Any input?

God bless,

Jame

    It's hard to say why

    exactly you might be running a temperature.....I did also, a couple of times.  I was told by my Oncologist, it wasn't  worrysome till it got up to 101.....

    They told me today

    that it is perfectly normal... so long as it doesn't reach 101.
