Note 44.371 MOUNT-L 371 of 517 CUPIDO::STRITAR "Andrej Stritar,IJS,(61)-371-321" 29 lines 18-MAY-1994 13:23 CUPIDO::STRITAR "Andrej Stritar,IJS,(61)-371-321" 29 lines 18-MAY-1994 13:23 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subj: Re: altitudinal sickosity >I am interested in your practical advice and experience for avoiding >the high altitude discomforts of headache, nausea, etc. as well as >the dangers of pulmonary or cerebral edema that go beyond the obvious >caution to allow time for acclimatization and gradual ascent. I live >at 7000 ft and am talking about trekking at 14000 to 17000. Any >suggestions? My experience has been that allowing time for acclimatization is rarely obvious. Having spent three months at about 14,000 ft. I discovered that it took at least 10 days for me to be adequately acclimatized for full-on, hard core climbing. After that period, I was able to ascend very quickly without noticeably adverse affects. Desiccation is a huge problem at altitude, and should be avoided with fervent determination - overhydrate if necessary! I should be clear that my *opinion* is based primarily on personal experience rather than medical training, but I felt that moderate exercise -as opposed to just kickin' back at altitude- seemed to bring me to a comfortable state rather quickly. I try to avoid analgesics or anti-inflamitory drugs which might mask the effects of dehydration or peripheral edema so that I am fully aware of my body's reaction to high altitude. Hope you find this useful! Cheers. Dave Rahbany Boulder, CO
