Low Body Temperature and Wilson's Temperature Syndrome

[PAUL-E]

I donated blood the other day and when the person checked my temperature it was 97deg and they said it was kind of low no one had ever commented on it before but I'm curious so I looked at past body temperatures and they were also low most between 96.8 - 97.4. I googled low body temp and found Wilson's Temperature Syndrome, Wilson’s Temperature Syndrome is characterized by body temperatures that average below 98.6 measured orally, typically below 97.8 . I always associated low body temp with thyroid or adrenal issues but then I seen this
" A proper temperature is critical for proper function of the body. Body temperature affects virtually all bodily functions. The thyroid system plays a key role in maintaining normal body temperatures. However, people can have low temperatures and severe symptoms even when their thryoid glands and thyroid blood tests are completely normal"

Here they talk about using T3 to jumpstart the body back to normal

thyroid and adrenal checked out good and no diabetes I would greatly appreciate any feedback!

My temperature normally runs in the 97's, but I do have hypothyroidism. I take 90mg of armour and .05mg of synthroid. I think the next time I have defy labs, I will have them do a complete thyroid panel.

The article states that you can have normal blood work and still have WTS its more based off body temperature and symptoms.
"The metabolism is regulated to maintain a normal body temperature and to prevent low-thyroid-type symptoms. If the body temperature is too low and a person's suffering from low-thyroid-type symptoms there's a good chance that there's something wrong with the metabolism."

Wilson's syndrome, also referred to as Wilson's temperature syndrome, isn't an accepted diagnosis. Rather, Wilson's syndrome is a label applied to a collection of nonspecific symptoms in people whose thyroid hormone levels are normal

So anyone think this is BS or maybe something to it?
Any thoughts on "cycling" T3? possible to cause damage?

I have chronic low temps but all my Thryoid stuff, the full panels including anti-bodies are always in Desirable/optimal ranges, no explanation for body temps. I was told the stick thermometer under the arm is totally unreliable and the body temp thing theory isn't really anything at all. I'm paraphrasing and leaving the Dr's name out of it since this was more than a year and I'm trying to remember it.
