Is having a consistant low body temperature bad?

Question

My temperature is usually around 96.4 when I wake up in the morning, and it goes up to around 97.8 during the day. Sometimes it goes up to 98.1 or 98.2. But by the evening, it always goes back down to around 97.2. I've been this way for as long as I can remember, and my father is the same way. However, I've been taking a blood pressure medication called Clonidine because my doctor says it helps people sleep without causing odd side effects of sleeping medicine. I don't know if this is affecting my life at all or not. I do know that my coordination is very bad and I've always been extremely bad at sports, and I'm often depressed and I'm very shy, but I don't know if this is caused by low body temperature, or more likely because of my physiological makeup. I did find a website that says it is a bad thing, but I don't know if it's true or not. If this some sort of bad condition, is there any cure for it?
Thanks
Daniel

The regular is 98.6, isn't it? That's not so bad. That is what many of the population's temperature is. It's the average. It's not the same for everyone, don't worry about it. If it goes down to 93 or something, then be worried.

I think you should be tested for thyroid problems.
