After my bloods yesterday I've a few questions sorry.
Iron. I take 2x Tardyferon tablets a day. They are 80 each. I've now finally got my iron to a good level. Do I carry on taking the supplements or do I stop? I've no view really either way, I'm happy my iron levels are up and I want to keep them up.
Scan. I've never had my Thyroid scanned or even touched really. Do I request a scan? It's always always been 'swollen' on the right hand side and after reading posts on here I think I should have a scan? Is that 'normal' practice. It currently feels really large to me.
Sweating. Is my thyroid the reason I have night sweats every night? Plus I'm quite a sweaty person during the day. Is my thyroid the reason for this also?
Supplements. I take B12 and B complex. Selenium and zinc. Iron and Vit C. Is there anything else I should be taking to help me?
Thank you.

Thank you Clutter. Ok will drop iron to one from today. And I just keep taking that from now on?
Re the scan I somehow thought it was normal practice, I shall try not to stress about that 😊
I'm 43 and quite sure I'm not going thro the menopause, I actually think that's been tested along this line and it's not happening yet. I am supplementing my B12 daily.
My Vit D was last checked 16/09/16 and was at 79nmol/l.....there is no range for this result.
I asked at the blood place for a full blood count on top of my prescription from my Endo but they didn't understand what I was asking for. So they did my B12 which now says it's at 957pmol/l and the last time I had it tested it was 24/01/17 and was at 385 but could that be showing the tablets? Seaside susi mentioned that.
