When I arrived at Lhasa Gongga Airport, I didn’t feel anything unusual after I got off the plane, then I took the bus to Lhasa city, and gradually I felt dizzy, and slowly I started to feel pain in the back of my head and neck, a kind of dull pain. The head is heavy, the stomach discomfort also began to appear, did not eat dinner, can not eat, to more than nine o’clock, want to get up to pour a glass of water, instantly, violent vomiting, the abdominal stuff all poured out, is a kind of jet vomiting. Continued to rest in bed, tried to sleep, but could not sleep, dizziness, headache, head swelling is very strong, stomach discomfort, nausea is obvious. Stiffly drank some water, and by one or two o’clock in the middle of the night, could not stay up any longer, sat up, and the change in position immediately caused violent vomiting. My companion, with similar symptoms, also had more diarrhea, several times. Yang Qingtao, Department of Urology, Second Affiliated Hospital of Shantou University Medical College
To the health room, it was plateau reaction, two have been where the infusion, the doctor gave mannitol dehydration, tachyphylaxis diuretic, pain relief, anti-vomiting, oxygen, after treatment, sleep, basically cured. The next day several people had plateau reactions again.
Plateau reaction is actually cerebral edema, intracranial hypertension, resulting in dizziness, nausea, vomiting and other symptoms, very hard, like having a bad cold, or the feeling of two nights without sleep.
My companion started taking Rhodiola —— quite expensive a week before going to the plateau, and it was just as ineffective.
On the plateau, be especially careful not to catch a cold, the common cold can cause emphysema, is fatal!
There is a plateau reaction, timely treatment, it is much easier.
