A 55-year-old Australian member in Nepal reported experiencing symptoms consistent with high-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE), including difficulty breathing, chest congestion, and episodes of desaturation. After failing to find relief with medications, Global Rescue initiated a field rescue, and the member was flown by helicopter to a hospital in Lukla. The diagnosis confirmed HAPE, viral respiratory infection, and acute mountain sickness (AMS). He was treated and later discharged and plans to return home after a brief stay in Kathmandu.
