 Would anyone know why someone with severe MS (kurtzke level 9), would
start having their body temperature fluctuate (from 98 - 102) on nearly a
daily basis, despite the fact that there is no sign of infections (all
tests turn up normal), and the person is taking numerous types on
antibiotics.    Any type of help is appreciated.

Dave,
    My normal temperature is around 97.5.  My temperature was recently
fluctuating
around 98-100.  It was at different times of days, different days etc and I
take
Ibueprofene each day when I do a Betaseron shot and the morning after the
shot so I think this often took the fever down so I didn't realize too much
what
was going on.

These fever fluctations have stopped now and I think the reason was a dead
tooth under a crown.  It just happened that it was time for my dentist
appointment
and when I went he found the dead tooth.  It had to come out and when he took

off the crown, from his comments I had the feeling that the infection just
came
shooting out then.

                                                                    Dee Booth
