Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i just got over an upper respiratory infection. When I was done my antibiotics and was feeling fairly good I went out to do a couple of errands. I was ver tird that evening. I woke up during the night and took my temperature. It was slightly under 95 degrees. I took it a few minutes later and it was a little over 95 degrees F. It seems it goes down when I am in bed and then goes up during the day to normal. When it goes down sometimes I get dizzy. I called doctor's ofc and spoke to the physician asst and she wasn't concerned about the low temp. She thought the dizziness could be vertigo. I am worried and I don't want to bother them over the weekend. What are your thoughts on this. I read that if an individual has hypothermia and their temp goes below 95 degrees the organs can shut down. Would this be true for what I am experiencing?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, such low temperature is nothing to worry because without the obvious clinical sign this could be functional, at the most this could be due to low water intake and take care for this, hope this information helps, have a nice day.
