Is it worth for my sister-in-law to go to Disney/Universal who has high blood pressure?

She's not really there for the rides, I'm assuming she's there for your kids. It's easy to avoid high intensity rides. She can get ice cream for the kids while everyone else is on Tower of Terror, etc.

Disney is for sure not worth it for an adult. Adult admission is only to be around kids/grandkids, unless you're going to the food and wine festival at Epcot. To me, still not worth it, but to each their own.

If you aren't aware, what qualifies as HBP has been defined down from over 200ish to 120. I'm not trying to be offensive here, but she sounds like a bit of a worry wart. I assume there will be consistent whining from the S-I-L.

Maybe when you go to a park more "adventurous" than Magic Kingdom, she gets a spa or pool day or something?

Here is the ride. She can show it to her doc. If she's nervous about it, she should wait outside. The doctor could tell her it's completely fine, but ultimately the choice is up to your SIL. I didn't seen anything as violent as Expedition Everest at Animal Kingdom (which wasn't violent at all, I just hated it.)

Her doctor knows if there are other complicating factors which may make her more vulnerable to stroke, aneurism, or something else. More people have been killed on Boeing planes than have been killed at any amusement park recently. Tell her to ask her doctor, not you. Again, her anxiety is coming across pretty heavy, which will usually create problems that impede on your enjoyment of the trip.

My ex wife sustained essentially a low grade concussion (can't remember if it was Tower of Terror or the Aerosmith ride.) Injury is possible.

I don't think any thing you can't ride with hbp. I have hbp and will ride everything but mission space.

I'll say two things about this but in short, she can still enjoy herself on the trip and never set foot into either park.

1 - defer any clinical conversations to her PCP
2 - She can still have fun on a Universal and Disney trip without ever stepping foot in the parks.

An ECV has nothing to do with riding attractions.

Is this a joke? About Half of American adults have high blood pressure, so there will be thousands of other people with high blood pressure at Disney at same time. Blood pressure will probably be low with all the walking and sweating.

just read the warnings before getting on if you are that concerned

You can even download the app (if you haven't already) and they have the warnings for each ride listed.

Get her doc to prescribe some Xanax or Clonopin. Get enough to share. Being around all of those animals in the handicap scooters with their roasted turkey legs is stressful enough.

They give those high blood pressure warnings before the rides just to cover their arse. Unless her blood pressure is so high that she is going to have a stroke at any moment, she will be fine.

Universal is cool enough for just the theming
