Hi Everyone!
I'm experiencing some strange symptoms, and i was hoping some of you may have an idea what might be going on. I was diagnosed about 2.5 years ago with CML, been taking 100mg dasatinib ever since. My PCR results are alright, though there are some fluctuations between MR4 and undetectable. Recently I keep feeling like how i felt when i got diagnosed with CML... tired, dizzy, and feverish. My face is always kinda red (probably the light sensitivity of dasatinib... i do wear sunscreen every day, yet it probes to be very hard to do anything against it. Maybe Singapore has strong UV - almost always very bright) and it is actually hot to the touch. If i measure my temperature on my forehead it is usually in the 37-38C range, and in my ear it is 37.5-37.6C, which i feel is quite high for a baseline temperature. In the mornings and evenings it normalized back to the 36C ranges, but after I eat something it jumps up, making me feel miserable - feeling heatwaves and feverish. Strangely this is only happening on my head, so taking my temperature from my armpit is perfectly normal always. There is nothing else that is obviously wrong with any of my results... do you have any idea why this might be happening?
Thanks in advance!

PS. now with the coronavirus scare in Singapore i'm actually getting into trouble because of this. Most office buildings and public places implemented broad temperature screening for visitors, and i'm routinely getting turned away from entering buildings because of my high baseline temperature.
