One cannot say about the D without a blood test. Your post info says Tampa....do you get outside daily, enough to make your own D?

The scan I had was a radioactive technicium uptake, showing if the thyroid is working or has nodules. My left lobe was not taking up the contrast, and the right was enlarged. My blood work was close to normal but I had many physical signs of low thyroid.
I went to an endocrinologist after my internist was so so about it all.
