Feeling better today. Woke twice with a headache during the night. No headache during the day then in the evening, it comes on. And at night it's worse. Makes sense, during the night the body shuts down, so even less oxygen to the brain.
After feeling anonymous for some days (because of all the groups), I finally meet some independents. And feel much better for the chat. Talking to a German guy who got sick on a high pass, pushing through and having no option but to carry on. I know that feeling and it's not nice. Sounded like he had HAPE, though he said he had his oxygen checked and it was okay, the doctor said it was some type of virus.
Still have a slight headache. Going to go up to Lobouche. Hope is doesn't get worse. Running out of paracetamol, and ibuprofen doesn't work the same for these headaches. Going to take it slow, just because of the head.
