    Almost everyone believes that a 98.6 is a healthy temperature and anything above or below that indicates that something is amiss. The truth, however, is a little different. First, there are individual genetic differences. In a room full of 100 healthy individuals there will be approximately 2 people whose highest temperature of the day will not reach 98. That's normal for them. Surprised? Second, everyone's temperature changes throughout the day. In the morning your temperature will be as much as 1 degree (for some people as much as 1 1/2 degrees) colder than a measurement you might take in the mid to late afternoon.
