I have changed the thermostat, water pump, and flushed the antifreeze and replaced it with fresh antifreeze. My gauge is still fluctuating trying to touch red like it wants to over heat but doesn't then it goes down then back up and so forth.

 

Did you burp everything?

 

If you burped the system and don't have any air pockets in it I'd try replacing the coolant temp sensor

 

Looks alot like pockets of air in your antifreeze system. Open your radiator cap when the car is cold and let your car idle for 15-20 minutes with the heater on. Put something like a rag over your radiator because it might spill some antifreeze out when the bubbles come out. Once there is no more air bubbles after 15-20 minutes make sure you fill your radiator up to the cap with antifreeze.
