Rollercoasters

[msuder0583]

I know they say people with E shouldn't ride rollercoasters but every year I go to Florida and ride the Twilight Zone: Tower of Terror. And for those who know, its a free fall of about 130 feet 3-5 times in a row. Very fun ride (and great show at that) and just yesterday at Hershey Park I rode some pretty fast rollercoasters and had no issues what-so-ever. So I'm not quite sure.....any thoughts?

Not everyone is sensitive to the same triggers. Strobe lights and fluorescents don't bother me, but they definitely set others off.

It's great that the rollercoasters don't phase you. (They don't bother me either.) I think folks with reflex epilepsy may be more sensitive to stuff like that, but I'm not sure.

I say if it doesn't bother then go on it.....

Then go another time for me.

I asked my neurologist about this and he said to start out on some of the slower ones and if they didn't bother me then work my way up. I was fine with them.

Strobe lights don't bother me either.
