HYPER ( not HYPO) thyroid & WLS

I take "Propylthiouracil 50mg" 3x a day at this time. I'd like to know if it is safe to be operated on with HYPERthyroid, and if weight loss surgery can be done as well. I am about 400+lbs and have gained alot of weight in the last few years. I'm sure this medication has contributed to it. Will I loose weight quicker being HYPERthyroid? I'm sure not loosing any weight now & I'm not thin as many HYPER people are. Thank you for any input to my question:-)
