The Fine Line Between Life and Death:Complications with High Altitude Medicine (HAM)

When trekking high-altitude mountains, the risks extend far beyond injuries and hypothermic conditions. Two major health issues, in addition to injuries, are Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS) and Extreme Exhaustion (EE). While many trekkers are familiar with AMS, fewer realize the dangers posed by extreme exhaustion, which can also turn deadly at high altitudes. AMS, a condition most trekkers are aware of, results from poor acclimatization to low-oxygen environments. On the other hand, extreme exhaustion often goes unnoticed but can be just as dangerous. Both conditions share similar symptoms: severe fatigue, breathlessness, and physical weakness. However, AMS may present with more severe symptoms such as difficulty breathing and pounding headaches, whereas extreme exhaustion results from pushing the body beyond its limits. Trekkers experiencing extreme exhaustion may feel so tired that they cannot move, yet they remain fully conscious. The causes behind these conditions differ. AMS is cau...

Unexpected experience conquering Mount Fuji / Mount Fuji experience

We planned this trip to Mount Fuji a year ago, in fact, made the payment to the travel agency (Lifetime Adventure Holidays  Sdn Bhd)as well. Along the way, more than 50 people joined this trip, mostly from Kuala Lumpur and Penang. Most of the hikers were not satisfied with the so-called expert agent on the arrangements for this adventurous trip. On the other hand, the agent couldn't be bothered by our unhappiness. Instead, he gave us sarcastic replies. Those who have paid were left with no choice other than  to continue the trip. We started our journey on 31st August to Japan. We reached Taenada airport around 7 pm. Mr.Ganesan, our agent who has arranged and ascended Mount Fuji 7 times, picked us up at the airport. We were told to bring small luggage bags as it was a rule for the transportation in Japan. To our surprise, there was no such requirement, and the bus could accommodate any size of bags. Many of us were very disappointed with the misinformation. As we reached the ho...

PERSISTENCE AND PERSEVERENCE PAYS

 If one aims for the sky.  At least will reach the rooftop. If one aims for 2 hrs of training. U will reach 1 hour ; for a start it is excellent. Let me tell u my experience! For the past 1 month,I was training intensely. I learned something interesting! As I used to wonder whenever going up the local hill at nearby my house.  How come the regular hikers can do at ease the hiking to the top  n I am struggling? Now I understand that practice makes it easy. Currently I can do at the speed I want to go up the hill n also slow down as I wanted. Once it becomes a regular training n practice in daily life.  Then it becomes a habit in u. So the subconscious mind takes over the habit n no more one require a conscious mind to strain. It comes an easy process in daily routine. To sum up the discussion,The more u do ,the better u become adage will be true in life. But many can't keep up! As life wants an easy fix. πŸ™‡πŸΌ‍♂️πŸ™πŸΎπŸŒΉ

Why I Moved To Bukit Mertajam

As I can remember! Almost every year, I attend St Anne Novena mass from a kid . For only a few years in my lifetime, I unable to attend bcos I was overseas. I praise n thank Lord Jesus n mother Mary for helping me to move to BM at my earlier phase of family life, though it was a coincidence, I followed my wife's place of choice. As I am close to the church which I am very attached to, and the hill Cheruk Tekun, which I can immerse with nature, whenever I need peace and serenity . πŸŒΉπŸ€²πŸ½πŸ™πŸΎπŸ’₯
