Rides for someone with a herniated disc

[TheCoasterNerd]

Hi guys! My mom is 56 and has one herniated disc in her back. We're going to the park this weekend and I want to know what she should ride. Pantheon, Tempesto (NO COLLARS!) Apollos, and Alpie will be open.
She can ride Mummy West, DarKoaster, BTMRR and Space Mtn on both coasts, Indiana Jones Adventure, stuff like that with no problem. She can also ride Rise (sim scene), Star Tours, Loch Ness, Incredicoaster, Rock N Roller Coaster without back problems but with a bit of nausea. Her nausea isn't as present when she closes her eyes. She HATES over the shoulder restraints but will ride them for once-in-a-lifetime trips e.g. Incredicoaster
I know she can't ride Alpie (shes rode it before) but can she ride Pantheon/Tempesto/Apollos? Apollo's I feel like probably, Tempesto maybe especially without collars but Pantheon I feel most iffy about. She really wants to but of course we don't want her to end the day in the hospital. What are your thoughts?

My suggestion would be to consult with an expert medical specialist and take that advice over anything shared here.

Barring that, Apollo's. Then assess before committing to anything else at all.

As much as I love roller coasters, I wouldn't ride at all with a herniated disc. Discs are weird and you don't always know what will trigger problems with a pre-existing situation. At the risk of repeating myself: treat the existing condition to the point of getting cleared, then hit the big rides.

Herniated Disk are extremely tricky snd there is nonone size fits all answer as things like how far up or down the spin they are is a factor. The vest advice it talkbto an expert that has seen her x-rays and can offer a knowledgeable opinion rather then a guess without the full picture.
