Thanks for the vid. Above 3100m I cannot sleep at all due to sleep apnea at altitude - become slightly dizzy as well. I can easily climb to high 3000s but just cannot stay there overnight. At 2800 everything is fine. Turns out the sleep apnea is due to breathing out too much CO2. Diamox should fix this issue according to specialist. Is this AMS?
Thank you for the information. Good to know.
Thanks for watching Vince!

That’s a very good question, I don’t know if it qualifies as AMS, I’m fairly certain that it’s not the only type of AMS, but it could be one.
