Using the tabs below, you can use the:
- Forums tool to share recent articles you've read or comment on others' links *Nat's preference as this does not require moderator approval - however, Becky and Jean, please test out the functionality of both and report back.
- Stories tool to share recent articles you've read or comment on others' links *Note: This requires a CWC PCN Conversations administrator to approve all topics before they go live

Medical Conditions and High-Altitude Travel
I found this very interesting article on medical conditions and travel in the New England Journal of Medicine.
Travel to high altitude is increasing. The authors discuss physiological changes at high altitude, pretravel evaluation for common medical conditions, and the risks of high-altitude headache, acute mountain sickness, high-altitude pulmonary edema, and high-altitude cerebral edema.
It is interesting to note the alarming probability of side effects for all travellers.
