 Hi, Melinda...

Did anyone explain to you WHY they needed to take your temp rectally? My mom is an RN with 30+ years working in hospitals. I had her read your initial post. She couldn't figure why unless you were also on oxygen, had other medical indicators that discouraged oral monitoring, or there was some sort of (outdated) protocol in your unit.
