Is it possible to get a fever reading on a thermometer (like 102.5 degrees) from just standing outside in shaded 106 degree heat? I know someone who felt sick at school, was sent home by the nurse with that temperature and then felt better once he got home.Is it possible get a false reading on a thermometer if you have been standing in the heat?
There are a few possibilities here. If the thermometer itself was out in the sun and the caregiver forgot to check it and shake it down, it would give a false reading. Of course, I'm talking about the old fashioned mercury thermometers here. Digital thermometers are becoming the norm.
While the human body has efficient thermoregulation, it is certainly possible to get overheated in extreme heat. One of the manifestations of heat stroke is nausea along with weakness, fatigue and muscle cramps. Recovery can be rapid once the body temperature returns to normal.

Can a dog in heat bring in another dog into false heat?
Yes they can, they can also influence their menstruation and bring them into real heat. Just like people.Can a dog in heat bring in another dog into false heat?

True or False? The mechanism of thermal radiation heat loss occurs through the transmission of non-visible lig?

Mostly true. Radiative heat transfer mainly occurs in the infrared band below visible light, however, for extremely hot substances, a small fraction of the heat transfer can take place in the visible spectrum.

I have false eyelashes and was recently given a heated lash comb. How are my lashes benefiting from the heat?
Why a heater comb? What does the heat do exactly?I have false eyelashes and was recently given a heated lash comb. How are my lashes benefiting from the heat?
faster curling and it helps keep the curl long.. but i dont like it, can damage ur lashes. use shu uemura lash curler... the best! @ sephora I have false eyelashes and was recently given a heated lash comb. How are my lashes benefiting from the heat?
Lashes usually drop out from being exposed to prolonged heat from appliances. It's always best to stick your head into the fridge for ten minutes after heat treatment
the heated lash comb is actually meant for curling your lashes. it's like with your hair...you straighten or curl it (heated curler) then apply hairspray to make it stay (mascara).

My cat is in false heat, and seems to be miserable, and meows non-stop!?
Is there anyway to make her feel better?? She just seems miserable like she is being abused or something!!My cat is in false heat, and seems to be miserable, and meows non-stop!?
It is possible when she was speyed, that a small part of the ovary was left behind, this can lead to false calling. Take her to the vet for a full checkup as even the slightest change in behaviour or personality in a cat can be a sign of illness, best to be sure and if it's an ovarian remnant, the vet can help you with that too as your cat will continue to call.
It can take time for the hormones to settle after desexing, but if she's really not happy then she needs to see a vet for treatment.
Good luck, I hope your kitty is ok.
EDITED: Ring around the vets and ask if they will offer you a payment plan.My cat is in false heat, and seems to be miserable, and meows non-stop!?
play with her or get a male cat
Please call the vet and let them know how she is acting, and see what they have to say. Take care.
I'd set up a playdate with a male cat...
I think you are thinking of false pregnancy. There's no such thing as false heat. She could be meowing because she's in heat...cats generally go into heat continuously every 2 wks or so until they mate. That's just a cat thing. So she's behaving like a cat in heat. Now is the perfect time for her to get pregnant from a cat's logic because the kittens will be born about 63 days later in May, when it's nice and warm in mid-spring. She needs to be spayed asap. Vets spay cats that are in heat all the time, given that they are basically in heat pretty much nonstop about Feb through Aug. If she's already spayed and you think it could be a false pregnancy, she should be checked by a vet. good luck!
Maybe it is something else that is wrong with her. Is it false heat because she has already been spayed? I know my daughter's cat would do that, and she would meow for 3 or 4 days constantly, then it would begin to taper off. The cat never did stop doing it until she died with a non-curable liver disease
It is possible that even though she is spayed some of the tissue was not removed and she is technically in heat. Contact your vet
Since she is already spayed, the fact that she is meowing non-stop and seems miserable indicates that she is uncomfortable. Taking her to the vet for an exam to make sure she is not painful anywhere, having her temperature taken, making sure she is not dehydrated, etc. is probably your best bet. Also, make sure she is eating and drinking normally, and urinating and defecating normally.
Why do you think it's false heat??
How about getting her spayed? Sure stops all of that real quick!
you've done the right thing by having her spayed....that is all i know that you can do to stop it....although it seems not to have worked for you.....

Can a female dog go into heat immediately following a false pregnancy?
My female boston terrier experienced a false pregnancy recently. Her Vulva is still swollen. I just need to know if she is still receptive and possibly fertile. She went into heat on April 3rd. I am looking for a 3rd opinion. My friend who has bred and shown dogs for 30 yrs says to take her to the vet. I took my dog to the vet, and the vet said their isn't anything wrong with her. She did an ultrasound to confirm the false pregnancy and to look for Pyrometra.Can a female dog go into heat immediately following a false pregnancy?
No! she probably won't come in heat again until October...most dogs only have 2 heat cycles in a 12 month period...some even only have one.Can a female dog go into heat immediately following a false pregnancy?
It is not normal for a dog to go into heat directly after a false pregnancy. You need to take her to the vet. She could have gotten pregnant, but miscarried. It is very possible that she is suffering from pyometra. This condition involves an infection in the womb resulting in green or red thick discharge. This is a serious problem that may require surgery to save your dog's life and in severe cases removal of the ovaries and the womb.
Your dog is find, because the vet said it to you. Maybe you can notice something wrong with your dog, its natural because she is in the state of pregnancy.

When my Pitt/Lab went through her false pregnancy, she never had another heat.
yay TD for the truth!
no

True or False: Heat from the interior of the earth provides an energy source for plate motion?
Yes or NoTrue or False: Heat from the interior of the earth provides an energy source for plate motion?
Make up your mind, true or false, yes or no. Heat from the planet's core provides the energy for tectonic motion. The molten Iron core also provides us with a magnetic field that protects our atmosphere from being blown away by solar radiation.True or False: Heat from the interior of the earth provides an energy source for plate motion?
ehh kinda heat provides energy to push the magma, which in turn pushes the plates. BTW I believe this is true am not actually sure
