Can I sky dive? What about other high altitude activities such as skiing or hiking in the mountains or flying in a non-commercial aeroplane?
High altitudes should not affect the stimulator. However, it is recommended that you consider what movements are involved in the planned activity and take precautions to avoid putting undue stress on the implanted system. You should be aware that skydiving may cause lead dislodgment and/or fractures from sudden jerking (such as when the parachute opens) which may require surgery to repair or replace the lead.
