Could Breastfeeding Be The Reason For Ongoing Low Body Temperature?

Hi there,

I am wondering what could cause me to have an ongoing low body temperature, currently 96.7. I am seeing a holistic practitioner who is also a neurologist and she has some concern about this but doesn't have much "bedside manner" and doesn't share much information. She mentioned radiation exposure. I know I am a 'downwinder" from the test sites and she also talked about exposure from the Japan situation. Could this be a cause? I am also a nursing mother of a 16 month old baby and have lost quite a lot of weight in the last 3 months. Trying to wean the baby.
