Hi
Welcome to Health care magic.
I went through the history you have provided here. It seems from the history that you are having low blood pressure.
Rollercoasters rides are not advisable in people with low blood pressure as this can cause further lowering of blood pressure.
Hence it is better to avoid these.
Hope this is helpful to you. Wishing you good health.
