Hello @johnjames -- I have no experience with iron iv treatments other than knowing it's for treatment when your body doesn't have enough iron which can cause anemia. I did find a good overview on the Cleveland Clinic's website here:

Were you diagnosed with low iron?

@Hi Lionness, So far I am lucky and am not on chemotherapy. Who knows! Sometimes my temperature is 102 and that day last week it was 95 with a warm sweater on. So we go on with life and try to ignore the pain with a smile. I do thank you for caring. You sound like a good person and I thank you for caring, Peach.

Thanks Peach I try to help where I can take care

@lioness,@peach414144 Asking others about low body temperature is on my list of questions. I have never had chemo, but I am autoimmune and have diabetes and a number of issues. My body temperature is normally somewhere between 95.6 and 96.8. When it is at it’s lowest, about 95.6. I am so cold that I shake with chills. It can be 80 degrees outside and I’m inside with the heat on wrapped in blankets with a heating pad and drinking hot liquids. I’ve told the doctor. and he is good person. I think that he is just tired of me and my complicsted problems. Why do people have low body temp? Do I need to see any psrticular type of doc? Gem

@gemmax @lioness and @peach414144 - years ago when my mother in law moved in with us it was a constant battle with the thermostat. It had to be 80 degrees year around. I was OK with it in the winter time but the summer I always escaped to the basement because it's cooler. Fast forward 30 years and I am that old person still in the basement and always cold even when it's warm outside. When I read your posts about low body temp it caught my interest because I've never checked mine other than when I had a fever. I did a quick search and found an interesting website on low body temperature. I couldn't find any related support information but it is something to think about.

@johnbishop Thank you for posting this link. It was an interesting read. I forwarded it on to my daughter.

Interesting artic!e John I'm having problems to post reply It won't post I wrote several time to get but it won't post ,do you know any reason for this?

Hi @lioness do you mean this post was what you were trying to do and tried several times before it posted? I don't know of any reason without more specifics. I know when it's unexplained on the Internet it's usually blamed on an Internet Storm...☺

I really don't know Colleen explained it to me once but my Sr.Moment kicked it can't remember what she suggested

No I don't think so unless it becomes a problem Kids will have a temp one day next day it's gone ,We at our age revert back to kids ,as everything in our body Chemistry needs more, vit., minerals especially magnesium ,if it gets to be a problem an endocrinologist would be the Dr.to help you My body temp has always been 96.7 sometimes it is what it is
