A member asked:

Is it still okay to run/jog/long walk/exercise if i have hyperthyroidism and thyroid nodules? i will medicate my disease soon.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: If your hyperthyroidism is causing your heart rate to be too fast, then vigorous exercise isn t a good idea. It would be more ideal to defer vigorous exercise until your hyperthyroidism is under control. I would favor long walks as exercise until then.
