Question

Info on altitude sickness

Answer

Climbing to these elevations can bring on symptoms of altitude sickness: - High altitude: 8,000 to 12,000 feet above sea level. - Very high altitude: 12,000 to 18,000 feet. - Extremely high altitude: 18,000+ feet. The hotel is 9,000 feet and the wedding is at 11,000 feet. Symptoms of mild, short-term altitude sickness usually begin 12 to 24 hours after arriving at high altitude. They lessen in a day or two as you adjust. These symptoms include: Nauseous Lightheaded Headache Dizziness Fatigue and loss of energy Shortness of breath Loss of appetite Sleep problems Symptoms of moderate altitude sickness are more intense and worsen instead of improve over time: Worsening fatigue, weakness and shortness of breath Coordination problems and difficulty walking Severe headache, nausea and vomiting Chest tightness or congestion Difficulty doing regular activities, though you may still be able to walk independently. When drinking alcohol: The air pressure at high altitudes is lower than it is at sea level, which causes the body to absorb alcohol faster because oxygen levels are decreased. The typical recommendations for adapting are: - drink lots of water - for a headache take acetaminophen (Tylenol), ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), or naproxen (Aleve) - slow down and rest - eat plenty of snacks.
