Amusement Parks & Roller Coasters..



Recommended Posts

Okay, so I'm still planning on visiting Cedar Pointe with the fam at the end of September and got the okay from my surgeon to go on the roller coasters, but he said that the G force would affect me more strongly now after surgery, so to be careful of what and how much I eat before I go on the rides...

So, do any of you have experience with this? Did the rides affect you any worse after surgery than before? I've never gotten nauseous from rides before so I'm hoping that I won't get sick before my 9 yr old! :P

Thanks in advance...

Riding in the car bothers me now and it never did before, but I am only 10 weeks out. Pre-surgery, I never suffered from motion sickness of any kind. I'm not sure that will be true now.

My family and I are Disney freaks and we go on rides all the time. I haven't had any issues with motion sickness since surgery (with the exception of right after). I don't eat right before I go on any ride (didn't before surgery either) because I always feared tossing my Cookies in public. LOL. You can always take a Dramamine about an hour before you get to the park.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
