B12 is 20? What country? What was the lab upper and Lower limits? If you are in US I hope B12 20 is misprint.. B12 needs to be at least 500 - I like mine higher than 800... Above 1000.. But that is difficult for me.

Iron looks good,

Thyrotropin serum , plasman - TSH looks good, free T4 is bit low, and You don't mentioned - did not test? your fT3.

Another may be protein deficiencies..

Getting extra SF jello may help.. I would address that with a doc. Losing lots of hair so far post op may indicate some issues..

Bleeding may be indicative for low fat and low vit K.

Low proteins...

What is the condition of your scalp? Is it normal, or dry, oily, itchy etc? Scalp issues can lead to hair loss (spoken from experience- I lost most of my hair before I even considered WLS)
