Anyone here taking thyroid hormone?

Do you feel like you need to take an higher dose when your iron/ferritin is higher? And lower for example after bloodletting?

You would be best not fiddling around with the dose based on how you feel. There is almost no likelihood that there is a link between thyroid status and iron levels.
