At high altitude the oxygen levels are lower. In order to supply the same amount of oxygen to your body you need to breath harder. The increased breathing causes you to also breath out more carbon dioxide which causes the blood to get less acidic. After a few days the kidneys can compensate and restore a normal pH.

Can you stop breathing at higher altitudes?
At higher altitudes, the air pressure is lower, making it harder for your body to get the same amount of oxygen you would at sea level. This can cause some people to experience shortness of breath or labored breathing. However, your body will automatically adjust by increasing your breathing rate to take in more oxygen. So, you don't stop breathing altogether, but you may breathe faster or deeper to compensate for the lower oxygen levels at higher altitudes.
Do people from high altitudes have trouble breathing at sea level?
Yes, people from high altitudes may experience difficulty breathing at sea level due to the decrease in oxygen levels. This is because their bodies have adapted to functioning in environments with lower oxygen concentrations at higher altitudes.

How can people in good shape have trouble breathing at high altitudes?
At high altitudes, there is less oxygen available in the air, which can cause shortness of breath even in people who are in good physical condition. This is because the body needs more oxygen to function properly in low oxygen environments, and at high altitudes, the heart and lungs have to work harder to deliver enough oxygen to the body.
At higher altitudes there is less oxygen in the air How might the composition of blood in people living in these higher altitudes differ from the blood in people living at sea level?
In an effort to take in as much Oxygen is available to us, the human body increases the number of RBCs in the system, which also would reflect in a higher Haemoglobin count for such people.
What is difference between the lifestyle of people living on high altitudes and low altitudes?
People living at high altitudes tend to have larger lung capacity and higher red blood cell count to adapt to lower oxygen levels. They may also have a lower resting metabolic rate. In contrast, people living at low altitudes may have faster metabolism and lower red blood cell count due to higher oxygen levels.
Why are aeroplane cabins pressurized?
