Three boys (early twenties) just visited Bangladesh and headed to Malaysia yesterday ! One of them having vertigo and headache since some days went to see a Dr in KL who said it is Culture Shock! Is that plausible !?

Though i am not a doctor but i can guess the reason. I met the boys. They informed that they came from Mauritus where the temperature was high (around 36 C). When they reach bangladesh that time the weather was cold here (arnd 8 C). So, i think weather was reason of their problem.

By the way LR, are they o.k now?
