I've noticed that my body temperature rises in the evening for an hour or so, then goes back to normal. It's not really a fever, just higher than it should be. I recently found out I have Microcytic anemia. Could there be a connection between the two? I could really use some guidance.

Elevated body temperature in the evening could be related to your Microcytic anemia. It is known that anemia can sometimes lead to a low-grade fever or increased body temperature. I recommend taking a fever reducer like Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg as needed to help with the elevated temperature. However, it's important to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your symptoms.
