Hi all, I had an ICD upgrade earlier this year (January I think) and also have an inset wire left form my last device (NOT MRI safe) in a ventricle, I was wondering if anyone knew the limitations on theme parks.
I would not go on purely magnet propelled rollercoasters but would be interested to know the full limitations.
Thank you!
P.S. sorry I am new here not sure if my formatting is a good standard xx

My pacemaker was installed in 1998 and I have not felt better. The mental part is the toughest.

The device isn't a problem, the leads aren't a problem once we heal well, but run it by your doctor to be sure the underlying heart condition isn't going to cause a problem. Some people have problems with some harnesses sitting right on their device. When I got a new lead, I stayed off coasters and anything with a lot of centrifugal force for a year. Magnetic brakes are the only thing I avoid.
