Q: 

I’m suffering with Graves’ disease & I often get heart palpitations, is it dangerous for me to go to the gym (cardio) like can it cause a heart attack?

Hello Anon

Thank you for writing!

We are unable to ascertain whether it is safe for you to use gym facilities. Please ask your doctor for advice. He/she can make a recommendation based on your Graves' as well as your general health.
Best,
Susan
