I have seizures and trust me, coaster jerking and that much pressure from the speed is bad for you. I am... was, a coaster junkie, but once seizures came into my life I had to cut back. I too tried "taking it slow" and the adrenaline rush mixed in with all the physical aspects of a coaster, gives me headaches for daaaays. No bueno

I don't have seizures or know Six Flags:
But I am going to recommend you stay out of roller coasters and other rides that are indoors and dark. They tend to have strobe and other flashing lights that are known for inducing seizures. I have a few family members with epilepsy and they tend to have problems around such things.

You have to ask your Doc

As long as you aren't going on roller coasters. They have that posted on the sign before you get in line. There's really no such thing as slow roller coasters especially at six flags, not unless he means you can get on kiddie roller coasters. Each six flags park has different rides also so it'd be hard to say. .

I would listen to your doctor, but I have a neurologist and anticonvulsions medication and have since I was 5 years old because I have a seizure disorder and started having seizures when I was 22 months old. And I've never been there but I've been to Knotts lots of times when I was little and in my teens and I was fine. And my medication has always helped with preventing seizures and been taking the same one since I was 6. Now Im 18.
