This morning I started sneezing real bad and my chest started hurting. Worried about the flu, I went to the store and got a thermometer. When I took my temperature it read 96.5. I checked about an hour later and it was 95.9. About 30 minutes ago (about 3 hours after the last time) it was 97.1. I'm worried about this being something serious even though I feel fine at the moment. I have hypothyroidism and I was sitting in a cold car when I got the 96.5 reading and I was walking around when I got the 95.9.

temperature fluctuates many times throughout the day and yours is in the normal range so I wouldn't worry about it.

Hi Sjm, agree with Annie. Mine ranges from 96.8 to 98 and I was told this is normal.
