Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS): 

Mild altitude sickness symptoms include:

  • headaches
  • fatigue
  • lost appetite and nausea
  • shortness of breath
  • dizziness
  • disturbed sleep

Symptoms of mild altitude sickness typically present between 12-24 hours after arriving at altitude and are common for trekkers in mountain regions. Resting for 24-48 hours at the altitude at which mild altitude sickness presents often resolves symptoms. Once symptoms have subsided at the altitude they begun, you can conclude that you have acclimatised to that altitude.

 

Golden Rules To Avoid AMS

The purpose of going through the symptoms of altitude sickness above is not to scare you but rather to enlighten you of the potential conditions so that you can avoid them. It is important to remember that severe altitude illness and HACE (High altitude cerebral oedema) and HAPE (High altitude pulmonary oedema) are rare on treks. Only a few treks in the world go to extreme altitude (above 5,500m) and in general all routes in the country have good altitude profiles that allow for good descents after going over high passes.

Below we have set out a a number of golden rules to remember:

  • If you feel sick at altitude, assume it is altitude illness until proven otherwise
  • If you are suffering from altitude illness symptoms do not ascend further
  • Get over high passes / summit climbs quickly and then descend
  • If symptoms continue to worsen after resting at a certain altitude, continue to descend immediately
  • Ensure you remain very well hydrated on the trail – drink two to three litres of water a day
  • Go slowly and don’t over-exert yourself
  • Avoid alcohol, smoking and stimulants whilst trekking (although there is some evidence that suggest caffeine can help with acclimatisation)
  • Speak to the guide immediately if any symptoms is suspected of altitude illness. A guide is trained and has the equipment to deal with any potential problems
  • Consider taking a preventative medication like Acetazolamide (Diamox) as an extra precaution
