So almost everyday for months I wake up and my temp is 97-98 degrees (36 C). Starting around 11 am it starts to rise and by 2 pm gets to 99.7-99.9 (37.6-37.7 C). It stays that way til about 6 pm and by 9 pm it's back down to 98.6. I know it's normal for our temperatures to fluctuate thought the day. But I don't think it should be getting that high and staying that way most of the afternoon. I've also been experiencing headaches, neck pain, and some pain in certain finger joints. I'm so scared it's something serious. But if it were serious would my temp start off low in the morning and return to normal in the evening? Please help me.

Perfectly normal. None of those temperatures can be considered a fever. Your temp can fluctuate a lot, and some people are hotter than others.

Agreed. That's not considered a fever. Best to stop all the self checking too.
