Hypoxic Quotes

“The emerging medical research into treating Long COVID in 2023 was matching my research into treating the long-term effects of altitude sickness that I published in my 2022 books. Amino acids appear to be key in treating both hypoxic conditions.”

“An ASD is an atrial septal defect. It is a hole in the heart. It is supposed to close at birth, but in some people it stays open. It causes low oxygen blood that is returning to the heart to mix with high oxygen blood. ASD’s can damage the lungs in the long term and can cause hypoxic blood to occur!”

“Traveling around the island had revealed I was being affected by altitude changes. I had noticed on days out from the campsite that I would be fatigued the following day. Altitude testing showed this fatigue reaction would occur whenever I spent time above one thousand feet. The longer I was above one thousand feet, the more fatigued I would be the next day and it would often increase forgetfulness and confusion. Once I started avoiding traveling past several hundred feet in altitude, I was much healthier! I call this sickness “Altitude Hypersensitivity”, as it was previously thought that altitude sickness only occurred above 4,900 feet.”

“Insomnia can be one of the first symptoms of hypoxia.”

“Where would my suspected hypoxic organ damage come from? High altitude astronomy. I was working in the hypoxic environment of the summit of Mauna Kea on the island of Hawaii from 2001 to 2006 at the Mauna Kea Observatories. Blood oxygen SpO2 is typically in the low 80’s, which is well below the 88% SpO2 threshold where the medical profession believes hypoxic organ damage starts occurring in the human adult body. I was sleeping at the Hale Pohaku dormitory for a week at a time at 9,200 feet where the medical profession believes central sleep apnea occurs, causing hypoxia during sleep. Sleeping tablets worsen the hypoxia, which I was using and most night shift workers use. I first started to see daily chronic fatigue in this position, but was able to struggle to work to do my week long night shift.”

“I was fortunate I had uncovered the protein intolerance before I became too sick to research it. I only uncovered it so quickly because it had coincided with research I was doing on hypoxic kidney damage and I was aware of the link to protein in urine. Had I gone back into a state of permanent chronic fatigue, I would have needed to move in with my parents.”

“Magee’s disease has a myriad of health issues associated with it.”

“When I was really sick, no one in the medical profession understood Magee’s Disease.”
― Steven Magee, Magee’s Disease

“The hypoxic nature of Magee’s Disease typically affects multiple organ systems. As such, the patient may present with a myriad of health issues that combined may have caused malnutrition to occur in the body.”
― Steven Magee, Magee’s Disease

“I believe the only reason why Magee’s Disease did not kill me was because I was taking nutritional supplements.”

“I married hypoxia.”

“Hypoxia, enlightenment and the pursuit of retirement age.”

“High altitude professional astronomy is a hypoxic job.”

“Nitrogen gas has killed many workers and has maimed far more!”

“The definition of ‘Summit Brain’ is a malfunctioning brain that is at high altitude and/or is hypoxic and/or is radiation exposed and/or has been exposed to Faraday cages and/or has viruses and/or has used medical oxygen and/or has used over the counter drugs and/or has been exposed to industrial pollutants and/or has been exposed to partial vacuum and/or has malnutrition and/or has long term damage from the various exposures.”

“I am a hormonally challenged kind of guy.”

“The 2022 book ‘Magee’s Disease’ describes the cortisol test to detect it. The hypoxic very high altitude Magee’s Disease matches well with Long COVID. The amino acids supplementing protocol to treat Magee’s Disease is also documented.”
― Steven Magee

“I started to exhibit Amnestic Disorder during working extreme night shifts at the world’s largest telescopes atop 13,800 feet very high altitude Mauna Kea in Hawaii. I was mal-acclimatized to the mountain, hypoxic, extremely sleep deprived, breathing medical oxygen, and in an unnaturally high radiation environment.”
― Steven Magee

“Aggressive airplane passengers probably have a bad case of Altitude Sickness. Many people are hypoxic at airplane cruising altitude. They would be wise to visit a doctor to see if they have lung or heart damage, hypoxic blood, Sleep Apnea, Altitude Hypersensitivity or something else that is causing oxygen starvation to the brain.”
