Brief Answer:
For now, you should monitor and not be too worried!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about these cold sweats that you have reported. I have reviewed your information fully and there are no reasons to get worried at this time. The highest temperature of 100.1 is just slightly above the upper normal limit and not strongly indicative of fever. If you have any other symptoms that may help us understand why these fluctuations in your body temperature, please let me know!

A temperature of 95.6 is at the low end. I will encourage you to dress warm and aim for a temperature of 97-99. Low environmental temperatures are the most common causes of low body temperature.

In all, there is not much to worry about right now. If there are any other symptoms, report to me. Otherwise, dress warm.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications from me if need be. Thanks for using our services.
