Guest guest Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 Hi - Whenever I come back from a walk my temperature is always about 1 degree lower. Its usually about 36.3 but after a walk its 35.3. This doesn`t make sense to me - you`d think your metabolism would speed up after a walk, but this indicates is slowed down ! I wish I knew why. Even so, your temp is still very low. I`m not sure if this is to do with adrenal or thyroid function so will let someone else answer that one.

Guest guest Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 If you take the temp directly after the walk, then it sounds like the mouth is at a much lower temp due to being out in the cold air. You have been walking breathing with the mouth i suppose. Try taking the temp an hour after the walk, i am sure the temp will have risen again. alternatley do an under the armpit measurement as well. > > Hi - Whenever I come back from a walk my temperature is always about 1 degree lower.

Guest guest Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 Hi Jane, > Hi - Whenever I come back from a walk my temperature is always about 1 degree lower. This happens to me as well. When I come back from walking my dogs my tempreature is always lower. I would like to know why - as you say, after a brisk walk this happens. I feel like a bit of an 'anorak' by keeping note of my temps - basal and a couple of times throughout the day. B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 I was quite alarmed at 33.3c...... I've just been in the garden chopping wood and I thought I'd measure it after that too. It was 32.4c. Oh I'm going to have a lot to tell my GP! > > Hi - Whenever I come back from a walk my temperature is always about 1 degree lower. Its usually about 36.3 but after a walk its 35.3.

Guest guest Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 Temperatures should be taken while you have been at rest for at least 20 minutes and without eating. This is the correct way to chart your temps. If you eat, for instance, and immediately take your temp, it will be much lower. The same thing happens with exercise. You can play with this for your own knowledge but this is what generally happens. A body in motion is different than a body at rest. I don't have adrenal fatigue nor am I under-medicated, and my temps drop when I eat or exercise.
