I Feel Like Crap But My Outlook is a Happy Face

When I woke up, my head was burning like the Ghost Rider. So I got out our BebeSounds BR146 thermometer to measure the temperature through my ear. My head was burning at 100 degrees F. But the thermometer showed a happy face to indicate I am ok. I turned to my wife who is a medical professional and showed her the indicator. "Oh. Poor baby. It is not considered as a fever unless it is like 101 degrees." That is just great. My head is burning like crazy, but my diagnose is a happy face.

I'm at it again. Had another 100.0 degrees F fever yesterday. But once again, I got a happy face outlook. I don't know what's up with my head, but I'm hitting 100.0 degrees F spot on all the time.

I did it again yesterday, Sunday. Finally was about to pull myself out of bed at 2:30 PM to measure my temperature. 100.0 F with a happy face. That's three times in one month. I'm beginning to wonder if there is something wrong with me.

Do you have another thermometer (i.e. one that goes in your mouth)? Maybe the one you have is defective somehow. It's too coincidental.

That's a good diagnostic, but we use it all the time with the baby, my wife, and now myself. It measures fine when I don't have a fever. Anyway, maybe your suggestion is a good one. I'll check it out. And I think next time, I'll use two independent thermometers.
