Hi Lois, I have exactly the same, for the past few months (almost a year now) my temperature's been around 37 - 38 °C. I don't have a cold or cough, or any similar symptoms. When it's just started I saw my doctor but she said that it's normal for some people to have slightly higher temperature. Considering that my temperature was always normal and I never had problems with it before I do not believe that it is normal.
I am just trying to keep my immune system strong (just in  case) ;-)

Hi,
How are you? Are there other symptoms present like cough or colds? How long have you been experiencing this? In most adults, an oral temperature above 100°F  or 37.8°C or a rectal or ear temperature above 101°F  or 38.3°C is considered a fever. A fever may be attributed to presence of infection, side effect of certain medications, severe trauma or injury,  and other medical conditions. You would really benefit from direct clinical evaluation by your doctor and from diagnostic tests including complete blood count to determine the underlying cause. Take care and do keep us posted.
