[QUOTE="andrewBwinter, post: 249981, member: 43256"] Like Bolivia at 4000m ASL: [I]"Defining the range of normal hematocrit and hemoglobin levels in residents of high altitude is required to diagnose chronic mountain sickness (CMS) and other conditions defined, in part, by hematocrit or hemoglobin values.
