I've had altitude sickness, so I know what it feels like, but I was at 12000 feet carrying a 50 lb backpack, and quickly recovered when I got down to 10000 feet. I also take blood pressure meds and riding in the mountains does not bother me at all - the duration is not long enough and the exertion is not hard enough.
Thanks Ron. Your feedback and the others above have addressed my concerns, especially since I am not the only one taking meds (and I also use a CPAP). I don't expect to be doing a lot of walking around at 12,000 ft.
