A member asked:

I am a thalassemia trait patient with 10.6 % hemoglobin and i am also normocytic hypochromic anaemia . can i go to gym and do workout ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

By all means!: I trust your personal physician is keeping an eye on your thal and will let you know if you develop additional anemia from some other cause. Absolutely -- getting into great physical shape is one of the finest gifts you can give yourself. Think about joining a group that does aerobic fitness together as well.
