I have bppv. (Vertigo). I will be traveling up to a very high volcanoe. A very high altitude. I have contolled asthma, but I m hearing I may have problems with me having both of these issues . Can you give me any insight into potential problems and perhaps solutions ? Thank you Shelly
Hi, at high altitude means up to 10,000 ft all human beings have mechanism to acclimatize to take atmospheric oxygen by hyperventilating. What you're saying is to go at volcano means above 15,000 to 25,000 ft. For patient of Bronchial asthma even on regular treatment with controlled symptoms, it is not medically advisable to go up to this height because even in normal individuals, they have difficulty to acclimatize there and you're also having vertigo.i don't think so u should take any chance.
