Recently I moved from 400 feet above sea level to over 4100 feet above sea level. I wasn’t sure how to adjust my diamox and have actually found my high intracranial pressure much better. Has anyone else found relief at high altitudes?
YES! I often hear from patients that when they go on vacation at a high altitude they feel better (as do I). It also explains why so many of us CRASH and burn when the barometric pressure drops!!
🙂Dr. Diana,
Do you still deal with intracranial pressure? I thought I read that you were on it for 2 years and then were able to come off? Or do some people have to be on it the rest of their lives?Thanks for any input.

I do better at around 2000 ft elevation. Not so good at sea level and I can’t go above 5000 ft without needing a trip to the ER. At higher than 6000 ft I can hear my skull crackling and I go pins and needles in all of my extremeties. It’s awful.
