I'm feeling a little warm, but not really sick. My thermometer is showing 37.6 Celsius. Is that considered a fever?

My doctor told me that 37 degrees Celsius is average, and anything up to 37.5 or 37.6 can still be within the normal range, especially if it's fluctuating or you've been active. A true fever usually starts from 38 degrees and above. But listen to your body, if you feel off, it's always good to check.
Generally, it's considered normal body temperature. Just monitor it closely for any changes.
As someone managing diabetes, I'm always extra careful with any body changes, even a slight temperature. It's important to monitor it and make sure it doesn't affect blood sugar levels. Keep hydrating well, that's key.
I often feel a bit warm at 37.6, even if it's not technically a fever. Does anyone else get that feeling like you're just on the edge of getting sick? It makes me so nervous sometimes.
For my kids, if it's 37.6 and they are playing fine, I don't worry too much. But if they're lethargic or complaining, then I'd start monitoring it more closely and keep them hydrated. Every body is a bit different.
See, I ignored a slight temperature once, thought it was nothing, and it turned into a proper flu. My advice? Don't take chances. If you're feeling unwell, even a little bit, it's better to get it checked by a doctor. Peace of mind is important.
