1. A method of substantially continuously self-monitoring core body temperature in a subject comprising:
- providing a first wearable device to said subject, wherein said first wearable device comprises a transducer for detecting body core microwave emissions indicative of the core body temperature of the subject, a microwave radiometer integrated circuit chip, and a wireless transmission module;
providing a second wearable device suitable for self-monitoring to said subject, wherein said second wearable device comprises a wireless transmission module, a microcontroller, and a display user interface for providing the core body temperature information to said subject;
detecting body core microwave emissions from the subject using the first wearable device;
transmitting said microwave emissions from the first wearable device to the second wearable device; and
displaying the core body temperature.
