Can I Go On A Roller Coaster With My Son?
Hello, I have High Blood Pressure and SVT. I loved roller coasters all my life and my son now has a love for them . i hate to tell him i can't go on with him. I was diagnosed with Supra Ventricular Tachycardia when I was 26 yrs old and had an ablation. It did not work. I am now 34 and also have High blood pressure and a pretty good case of anxiety. It has RUINED my life. I take cartia 180mg a day and 75 toprol and now spirilectonol for the swelling in my legs. The cartia makes my legs and ankles swell a little bit. I am wondering if you think i can get on a roller coaster with my son. We are going to 6 flags on Aug 25th and I would Really like to go on with him.... Do you really consider SVT a heart problem. Thank you for your help.Jennifer

Hi,
Thanks for query,
You should not have Roller coaster ride as you have got hypertension and SVT.
It may produce serious problem of heart and CNS.
Ok and bye.
