• Josephine in Toronto - This is a question for your cardiologist, because he/she knows your particular heart issues. It's not just the matter of a stent, but what the surrounding diagnosis is -- most amusement park rides have warnings that you shouldn't go on them with certain medical conditions. That being said, it might be perfectly fine. Here's a thread from the UK that might be helpful: https://healthunlocked.com/bhf/posts/137875705/going-on-roller-coasters-after-having-two-stents
