Regarding altitude sickness, a doctor turned me on to INOSINE. Comes in little vials, drink three or four a day. Greatly alleviates the symptoms, like headache and nausea, and you get to enjoy your time even during the first few days. I looked it up on the internet. Athletes use it to increase their blood's ability to absorb oxygen. It is available at pharmacies, especially those at high altitudes, but I don't have the Chinese name handy, sorry.
