Depend on.....
My experience is that you should get second opinion and then decide what to do. I have diabetes for 11 years now and my first doctor told me not to train

(running marathon). I experienced that my health has always been better when training. I have been sent to a specialist for diagnostics and a new doctor has been specialized in sport and told me (in my case) that what makes me feel good and more healthy I can train(knowing your limits). I joined Aikido 5 years ago and my illness has newer stop me to do what I want to do. I live better with Aikido
