You should get in touch with your neuroendocrinologist.  A decrease in normal  body temperature can be associated with, amongst other things, diabetes and hypothyroidism.  Since your pituitary is not functioning, your endocrinologist should be closely monitoring all the hormones affected by the lack of function of the pituitary (sometimes known as the master gland).  See private message for other causes of decreased body temperature.

nothing to worry. my body temperature is 97.5 and pulse rate 60 which sometimes goes to 52 even 48. there may be concern over pulse rate but not in case of lowered temp. yours ia not a case of fever. sure! relax if you have no other problems.

No, nothing is wrong at all. Normal is 98.6. Most people run below that. A fever would be over 99.1
