[lynypixie]

Hello!

I am currently suffering from a concusion. I have no Disney plans in the near futur, but I am worried that I won't be able to get into rides anymore.

Anyone here had a concusion and went to Disney after?

I am getting very worried about my futur.

This is something you need to discuss with your doctor.
A single, uncomplicated concussion is likely to heal without causing any future problems. Each concussion after that may add damage, until it gets to the point of further damage.

There are people who have had a single concussion who go on to live their lives with no restrictions (that would include me - I had a concussion as a child).

There are other people who either had multiple concussions or a single very severe concussion that caused permanent damage. My family knows someone in that situation who has been told to avoid anything that might shake him.

There is a list of attractions with warnings on page 2 of the disABILITIES FAQs thread. That would be a starting point for discussion with your doctor.
