Is it normal to have a temperature between 99.1 and 99.5 instead of the usual 98.6?

As has been said already, 98.6 is the average human temperature. Your core temp. may be slightly above or below that.  I would be much more concerned about being sick for an extended period of time.  If you haven't recently. . . . please go and see a doctor.

normal body temp flucuates and is normal.  the 98.6 thing is old school.

Yes it is. 60-100bpm is normal. I wish mine was that good LOL.

well...obviously it's kelvin!\n\nand i think they meant -345.388 degrees fahrenheit.  there's a little difference there....like about 700 degrees!

if your temp is 96.6 you most likely don't have the true flu. yuou propably have the latest stuff thats going around you get a cough that lasts for a while and you feel miserable. and no that temp is nothing to worry about. some people have lower than 98.6 for their normal temps, and some have higher.

if its 98.6 outside, our body temperature will rise, causing us to sweat and dehydrate.\n\nWe need the temperature to be about 70 degrees to stay at a steady 98.6.\n\nWe need the outside temperature to be less than the body's temperature as the body's chemical reactions produce too much heat, so some heat needs to be lost.

There is a fairly large variation in what people find to be comfortable, from a low of around 65C for those with high metabolisms or mild hyperthyroidism, to 85 or 90 for those with low metabolism.  The variation for humidity is slightly less, from 30-70%, assuming no physiological problems.  Thus, there is a range, just like any other parameter we live with, like the amount of salt in food, or colors on a wall-there isnt any *one* perfect answer.

Depends on different processors. If you have an intel motherboard, installing the suite of applications gives you the temperature and default limits which the CPU and computer shudn't exceed. According to what i know, this should not be more that 50 degrees celsius

Average normal temperature is approximately 98.6 from the day you are born till the day you die.  Just remember this is an average.  Some people actually run "normally" below or above this.

Exercise involves lots of aerobic respiration, which is WORK, esp as all the muscles are contracting=WORKING.  98.6F is an approximate temp. we do NOT stay there all the time and our temp changes all day depending what we are doing.  In fact in females who are not on the pill or other hormones, the body temp fluctuates all during the month due to the different hormones in the blood (say 96 to 99 deg F) , but 98.6F is "normal" homeostasis body temp for the "sleeping-idle person...we are close to homeostasis at this temp, but during exercise, the body temp will naturally go up, but the body wants to cool you off so you don't FRY-COOK-DENATURE all your metabolic enzymes and go into HYPERTHERMIA.  If you are in good shape you may be able to cool off better than others!\n\nThis cell respiration process during exercise produces lots of ATP and body-muscle heat, which is lost as well. Body needs to cool off from doing all this WORK!  Skin can help us with thermo-regulation in several ways.  When we sweat, the moisure of sweat plus the heat helps reduce body temp by evaporative cooling.  Also,when we get red-overheated,the blood goes to perpheral circulation in skin to bring blood-heat to the surface to be lost by convection with the air currents.  Heat can also leave skin by radiation too.  You can feel heat coming off red sun burned or fevered people.

98.6 is the average temperature.  But can vary between 96-100.3

Anything above 37 degrees is not normal (could go technically speaking up to 42 when you fry).\nYou can feel ok and still have temperature above 37 degrees. The causes could be different but it is often a sign that there is a process in your body that needs to be taken care of. \nIf it persists, go to you doc.\nHope it helps

Yes, that is fine and within the normal range.  Although the quoted average is 98.6 degrees F (37 degrees C), it can vary by several degrees higher or lower.  Your temperature will vary depending on different factors, such as your metabolism and how fast or slow it is, time of day, if you've exercised recently, etc.\n\nThis also will depend on which method you have been using to take your temperature.  Typically the most reliable temperature reading is either tympanic (your ear) or rectal.  Rectal temp is more reliable because it is more invasive, and it is going to give you a higher reading of your temperature than an oral reading as it is closer to your body's core.  Least accurate, and the one that will give you the lowest temperature reading, is axillary temp (underneath your armpit) as it is the least invasive.  So another thing to consider is whether you have been using the same thermometer and the same method--tympanic, rectal, oral, or axillary--to obtain your temperature, and whether or not it has been the same time of day every day, etc.\n\nSo the bottom line is, generally you should not worry if you think your temperature is low, as what is regular for one person can be higher or lower than the average.  If you still are concerned, though, you may want to consult with your doctor.

yep, a low normal 60-80 is normal with anything under 50 slow and anything above 100 fast

Sorry my friend. You have been gravely misguided by this notion. However, the pulse can be an indicator to your temperature. For example, a normal adult pulse rate is aout 60-100 beats per minute. so if your pulse is above 100, it's likely that you have an elevated body temperature. However, do take note that a fever is only one of MANY other causes of tachycardia (rapid heart rate). \n\nUse a thermometer the next time :) Saves you a lot of trouble
