Hair loss

Ok, guys I am worried about the hair loss I am experienceing. I was sleeved September 10, 2012, a little over 4 months out. I am on levothyroxine due to a thryroidectomy 2 years ago and have been on levothyroxine for about 8 years prior to that surgery. I also understand that hair loss is a side effect of levothyroxine. I never noticed much hair loss until recently and I would like to know if there is any sleever out there who has thyroid issues and has been thru this experience? My blood work done 3 months out showed I was low on iron and vitamin b12 so I am making sure to take all vitamins recommended by my surgeon. I take Biotin as well. Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated.!
