I know this is a question for my neurologist, and I will ask her, however, I was wondering if it was okay if there is any risk of hottubs being seizure triggers?
I have been an avid swimmer since I was three years old. I started lifeguarding when I was 15 and taught swim lessons for a few years.
My neurologist has told me it is OKAY for me to swim, as long as I have someone in the pool with me, in case I was to have a seizure, to get me out immediately. My parents have assisted with the swim team for years, and my brother has also coached the swim team for at least six years and been on it from the age of 4-18. So, I have good swimmers ready to help when we go. = )
Anyway, one thing I forgot to ask, and plan on asking before I head off on my cruise (which I leave for on December 26th) is, if I can get in the hottub?
In the end it will be up to her, but I was just curious as to what you all had to say, and as to if your doctors had ever said or had any advice about them.
