What rides can you not do that you wish you could?

[disfan07]

I wish I could do rollercoasters, splash, kali river rapids, ToT, Test Track, Rock n Roller coaster.

I have a heart condition and I had a craniotomy 3 years ago. Both limit what I can do ride wise. I developed PVCs after riding Big Thunder mountain about 5 years ago which landed me in the ER. Tried it again 2 years later before my surgery when my heart was stabilized and things were fine but I have lasting effects from my craniotomy with pressure and neck problems (they cut through the neck muscles in the back of my neck) so I cant handle rides with drops or rollercoasters at all. And now im having heart problems again so I've just accepted I will never get to go on those rides again. It kind of stinks as a DL passholder because when I go with people they always want to go on those rides. I just hang out and people watch.

BTW, in DL Billl, they have added a Transfer car. The side opens up so you can do a basic sliding transfer. They have that on all Fantasyland rides except Mr Toad - There is even now a TAV for the Teacups! Almost everything that does not have a WAV in DCA has a TAV, and there are a lot of TAVs in DL now too.

The park is getting more and more accessible with every refurb!

Glad you mentioned this. I haven't been on this since it was Alien Encounter, but will avoid it for sure now. I have pretty bad asthma that is aggravated by many smells. No food allergies, but I don't trust smells in general, and certainly don't want to to be stuck with a face mask full of an irritant.

I did find out here that I can leave my nebulizer at first aid rather than going back to the room to use it during the day. Infinitely helpful information.

I have asthma too. I love Spaceship Earth but the smokiness from the caveman seen kills me. Never thought about bringing my nebulizer to the park. I may do that in August and go on Spaceship Earth

What about a basic surgical mask? Or a painters mask? You can get a surgical mask at any drug store, and a painters mask at any Home Depot type place.

If you do not inhale whatever dust-smoke they put into the air, perhaps that would help!

Both weigh nothing and are easy to carry - definitely easier than a nebulizer. And it may help on other rides with scent.

I do not have asthma, but it was just a thought.

When I have rode it in the past I always pulled my shirt or jacket over my face but it still bugged me. A mask may be more successful though. If my old brain remembers I will pick up some.

One other place that was a nightmare for me was Tepen Edo. My son has this Japan obsession so he really wanted to go there. I don't care for that type of food but being on the dining plan I figured it wouldn't hurt much if I didn't eat much. I had no idea how the rooms were set up and when we got upstairs the cooking odors we so strong. Much worse when we got into the rooms. I think I had my inhaler in my mouth more than I had food in my mouth!

Star Tours definitely! Pirates of the Caribbean and Dumbo too.

I wish I could do the end of the day fireworks and Fantasmic. Even if I go back to the room and rest I am just too tired. I miss the parades and any show or character lines that are outside thanks to neurological heat intolerance. I miss out on table service meals because it is too fatiguing to sit that long.
