If you can descend to a base camp to sleep at night it makes tolerating altitude easier. Our condo was at 9,660 ft so it didn't help me enough (top elev 12,408)
Took me 3 days just to be able to ski, then needed a day to recoup. Installed an O2 concentrator - didn't help. Never tried the meds route

OK, Bronc is over further tests show irregular heart beat. Personal decision....gonna have to limit to about 7500k activitioies...it's either that of quit totally and I'm just not gonna do that. Was assigned a young Harvard Dr that is
against every thing I do. Guess we keep on trucking and see what the future does bring. Face it, I've reached reached a new service limit. Dan ![]()

OK, after Bronc treatment, they treated for pneumonia....am on a ventolin inhaler.....still get short of breath but can recover...MRI shows nothing major in upper body....today, cardiologist reminded me of valve malfunction from a few years ago. Advises to stay away from altitude. Want's to run a mirade of tests....
Docs in the past have been ok with this as long as I pace myself. I'm debating.................... What it looks like is I'm gonna have to do things at lower altitudes or take up fishing!i Dan ![]()
