Hello @gailiebird and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect, where members get and give support. I can see that you are interested in connecting with members who may be able to share information on the COVID vaccine and potential reactions due to AIHA. Members such as @gg17 and @whoey have both mentioned associations with AHIA and might be able to share more with you depending if they've received the vaccine.
Are you scheduled to receive the vaccine?

I'm on covid-19 vaccine waiting list and expect to be scheduled soon. After catching a cold a couple of winters ago my hemoglobin dropped and I required Rituxan transfusions to get it under control. I'm currently able to control AIHA with steroids but concerned how the vaccine may cause my autoimmune system to go in overdrive.
