Less Weight Loss After Child's Birth. Tested Positive For Hyperthyroid, Feel Fast Heartbeat. What Do You Recommend?

My daughter had a baby on June 13, 2013. She has been juicing, exercising etc and has not had very much of a weight loss. She just got tested for thyroid problems. Her 3 tests say she has hyperthyroid, which sounds silly given her trouble. Sometimes she does feel a fast heartbeat.
She is more into a healthy lifestyle and holistic treatment. What do you recommend? Thank you so much for your help.
