I haven't gotten sick from altitude alone. I tend to get migranes when my blood sugars get too low. Usually they go away after some asprin and food. I went up to the mountains a couple weekends ago (I live in a valley) and became hypoglycemic. Not only did my headache not go away, it was accompanied with nausia. And it took FOREVER to get rid of. And my blood sugars were fine.

I'm thinking it took longer to heal and my symptoms were accelerated because of the altitude. So it could be possible... because the air is thinner.
