Very jerky rides like certain roller coasters tend to trigger or worsen my myotonia. Some of it is nerves, and some of it is percussion myotonia. However I've spoken with others with MC who love roller coasters and don't have a problem with them, so I think for the most part it boils down to how your central nervous system interprets the experience.

I recall flying in a C130 once and I was sitting near the parachutes. Looking out the window, I decided, if the airplane was about to go down, I would have no problem grabbing one of those parachutes and jumping. That was before I started to have some height related vertigo problems though.

Type of Myotonia: Becker

Country: USA
