I have taken an oral and rectal temp at the same time to compare readings.I have also used a glass mercury rectal thermometer and then used a digital rectally to compare readings.The glass rectal for me is by far the most reliable.Digitals register faster,but are not as accurate.

I'd say this: If you have or suspect you have a fever, or are not feeling well or are sick, yes, take your temperature, becauase if you wind up talking with your doctor he/she may ask if you did so. They might ask the way you took your temperature.
