Going in July, first trip since diagnosed with bulging disk L5-S1, I am worried about the drop on Pirates and the roughness of Star Tours, not going to bother with Test Track, ay thoughts?
 
I don't have an issue with the drop on Pirates, but getting out of the boat can cause pain afterward.

I would be cautious about any of the rides that knock you around like Star Tours, some days I would okay, others I would skip it.
 
My DH has a deteriorated disk and has to be very careful with all rides. He does Pirates without issue and has done Star Tours a few times.
It is not the best thing for his back but he has gone on it for each of our boys 1st ride but otherwise he skips it. He skips most of rides that has a height requirement except for soaring. The Safari ride can also be an issue as well.
 
Pirates - yes

Star Tours, Test Track - NO

When getting out of the Pirate boat - step with both feet onto the seat first, then step onto the concrete. Hold on to the railings. Be careful if it is wet!

Have a great time! :goodvibes
