Is It Safe For Epileptic Children To Go On Fun Rides?
My 9 year daughter has recently been diagnosed with epilepsy. She is on regular medication and has not had a seizure since. However, she is very keen for us to go to Universal Studios in Florida (particularly Harry Potter World ). Would the rides be safe for her to go on? I am worried in case they trigger a fit.

Hello. I just read through your question.
As long as the seizures are controlled on the medication, there is nothing to be concerned about. She may go on the rides.
