Low-grade fevers weeks after COVID: Is this common with long COVID?

I'm another one. I had COVID in August 2022 but still have a few long-COVID symptoms, primarily intermittent fatigue. What's puzzling me is a persistent elevated temperature. Pre-COVID, my steady-state body temp was 97.7. Since COVID, though, it's never lower than 99.0 and often rises to 100.0+ in the evenings. I've told my doctor, who basically said, "That's interesting. Maybe it will go away in a few months." Do I care?

I know this is an older post. Wondering how you’re doing now? I tested negative for Covid on August 25 and took a few weeks to get my strength back, even though it was mild. But ever since I’ve had persistent low grade fevers in the evenings mostly of 99-100.5. I’ll have a day or two with no fevers in between. I saw my dr 2 weeks ago and she told me not to worry as long as they don’t go over 100.6. So I asked what if they continue, and do go over? She said, “I’m not worried”. Ughhh, I’m frustrated and hoping they will eventually stop for good.

How do you feel now? I’m experiencing the same exact thing.
