Can I Ride A Roller Coaster After Having Catheterization?
I am 52 yrs. old, 140 lbs., 5'71/2". I had catherization 1 week ago, 2 stents and balloon. I still have a 30% blockage where they ballooned. I am going on vacation next week and would love to ride a roller coaster. Is this possible or what is the risk?
As such no contraindication for doing such things but being a heart patient ...avoid such strenuous or much anxiety producing activity...beside I don't know what is your baseline heart function. On echo...So best person to guide u is your cardiologist
