Iron Depletion in Blood related to COVID?

I had the Moderna vaccine 1/20/21. By 2/1 I started feeling extremely tired and symptoms kept coming. By 2/15 I was bedridden. I had severe symptoms - about 20 of them. After 9 doctors (3 ER’s) not being able to figure it out- I figured out on my own that I had iron deficiency without anemia. I had never had this before. I verified this with a blood test and two more doctors afterward. I took 4 weeks off of work and once I started supplementing iron I started to get better within about 4 days. When I got to work, a coworker of mine was also out for weeks and had the Moderna vaccine about a week after mine. He was also bedridden! We found out that he also had a severe iron problem! He also had severe symptoms (we both felt like we were going to die at one point). He also took iron and got better. It’s interesting that you ask this question because I’m constantly wondering if anyone else had this same thing happen. My ferritin was 21 three weeks after supplementing. Now it is 132 and I feel so much better. I hope your husband is also.

I submitted my VAERS report in March of 2021, report number 1131445 so there is definitely at least one report because I had the same exact thing happen.

I took the moderna, and Im only 44 years old, I give Blood often, because, Im listed as a sickle cell hero, and i have a Pediatric Patient that receives my blood donations.
After my second dose, i began feeling so tired, didnt know why, just did my check up, and my hemoglobin is low, and my iron is extremely low, i was shocked to say the least, but it explained why i was so tired.
So i began researching, and couldnt find any data, but found this thread.
I have never had this issue before.

I reported as well. I’ve had Pfizer. I don’t know why it does not show either report. Perhaps the word “Temporary”means something.

I’m 78 and got my booster yesterday. My levels have returned to normal after taking daily pills and an iron infusion. I guess I’ll see what happens next.

Not sure why you are not finding anything. I have done my own research (lay person) and have found numerous medical reports regarding the vaccine and anemia.

My daughter who is 19 has had similar issues. We just made our second trip to the ER. First time she was at 5.8. She experienced other adverse affects after the second dose of Moderna at the end of February but the low Hemaglobin became noticeable in June. Yesterday was the second time. The hemotologist is give her iron infusions starting next week. She wants her to have upper and lower GI scoped. We believe it's the vaccine. She was healthy before this.

Thank you. Was this reported to VAERS?

No. Because the doctors will not admit yet that it resulted from the vaccine. They want to run more tests, upper and lower GI, etc.

your daughter can report it in VAERS herself - here is the link :https://vaers.hhs.gov/esub/index.jsp She should have her vaccine card in hand as specific information is requested.

I reported it. I still don’t know why I had to have infusions and continue to use iron pills. When you report, you are not saying it is a result of the vaccine. You are just saying that something unusual happened after you had it.
