I often keep my fan off and check whether iam getting sweats. if i dont get sweats then iam fearing that then fever might be there and checking temperature. I got my oral temperature as 98.8 and 99.2 now but my whole is sweating and when fan is switched off and i fear that i will get some serious problem.
