Would Six Flags roller coasters affect my mitral valve prolapse?
Yes…. most definitely! There is a reason that they have the disclaimers saying that anyone with heart problems should not ride certain rides. I have mitral valve prolapse, among other heart problems, and I was told by my Cardiologist that under no circumstances should I ever ride on a roller coaster. I understand the need to fit in with your friends, but don’t risk your life to fit in. Also, I’ve been to Six Flags many times and there are plenty of rides and attractions that are perfectly safe for you to participate in. And, look at it this way, you’ll be sitting pretty while your friends all get off the roller coaster with green faces.
