I did ask my GP but she was unable to give me any helpful advice so I wondered if anyone who had been on the trip could let me know if they had any problems.

Hi Maureen
Sorry your GP was unhelpful. Does your surgery offer a travel clinic? You might have to seek a private appointment which you will have to pay for. Alternatively, discuss with your insurer. (I paid under £48 to my GP recently for a yellow fever vaccination which included a 20 minute consultation for my trip to South Africa.)
Also, try googling "altitude sickness" there is lots of advice which suggests you take it easy, acclimatise and drink plenty of water.
