Iron Depletion in Blood related to COVID?

Working on a circulation
Problem since.

First let me say that I'm glad I'm not alone. I am a very healthy 43 year old female. I am having the same issue. I have had the COVID vaccine and booster. I know have iron deficiency. It started with thinking I had a pulmonary issue since I could barely breathe on my runs (before this I was running and at OTF). It was actually that I had almost no iron. I have never had a health issue in my life. My past CBCs are rock solid. Since finding this out, I have had a colonoscopy, endoscopy, capsule endoscopy, pelvic ultrasound, CT of my abdomen, chest and thorax. I have also had about 10-12 blood tests, urine tests, stool tests, and tested for H Pylori. Everything is perfect, but my iron is dropping 3 mg/dl a day. I get Infed injections which leave a horrible bruise for months. I can hold iron to save my life! Seems suspect that it was the vaccination.

I got the Pfizer COVID vaccine back in May/June 2021 and shortly after started having a host of unusual symptoms pop up suddenly - heart flutters multiple times a day, very excessive fatigue, lost a pregnancy (didn't know I was at the time when I got the vaccine and fetus did not progress/grow normally by 9.5 weeks), have tingles in my arms and pain in my body, low ferritin and dropping (Aug 2021 "15", Jan 2022 "9", May 2022 was "5"), headaches, excessive hair loss, GI issues, bloating, weakness, etc. I never got boosted for fear of effectiveness vs potential reactions as you can imagine. Also, cousin has confirmed autoimmune hepatitis reaction from pfizer vaccine to the point of docs telling her to get on the liver transplant list. (ironically/thankfully her mom works for pfizer and got her a steriod treatment that seems to be working now). Shes ONLY 19 years old and very healthy - she plays ice hockey in college for crying out loud.

OK back to me... Docs say I'm just getting "older" but I only just turned 35, (33 last year at time of vaccine) and in relatively good health. Have non-autoimmue hypothyriod for years and remains stable and still is. What's baffling is I've been battle of low ferritin (5 and steadily dropping since after my first 2 doses of Pfizer vaccine - ferritin was over 20 even a year after childbirth and surgery so unless unknown internal bleeding for a year, can't pinpoint what would cause this since menstral cycles are normal and not heavy. I'm barely able to keep my iron up even with supplementing for over a year - tried a few different kinds and 1 that worked to keep my iron in good ranges during pregnancy 3 years ago isn't helping now. Originally thought bleeding or heart issue but heart sono normal and endo/colonospy show nothing - no celiac, chrons, UC. Other blood work is OK. NO KNOWN COVID positive case but did antibody test in January and was moderately high. So what is it then?? I eat well - organic, grass fed, protein and veg with and have plenty of iron in my diet but it's like my body can't absorb it or something anymore. Started seeing a hematologist and started IV iron. Waiting results of blood work from first round but now I can't help but think all these symptoms are linked to the COVID vaccine because that's when the onset started. Also saw this interesting article on corpses having very low iron, mag, cal, zinc, and excessive clotting for all ages and timing seems to be last 2 years. This page won't let me post the link but it's on theEpoch Times titled "embalmers have been finding numerous long fibrous clots that lack post mortem characteristics". The article I will warn you is a little concerning and may raise your anxiety towards COVID vaccines.

QUESTION TO THE COMMUNITY - Is anyone hearing of links between mRNA vaccines and clotting/iron issues? IF so, any known effective treatments?

All I can find is that the mRNA pfizer vaccine has been proven now to cross the liver cell walls and potentially change to DNA and create autoimmune responses and very high protein spikes. I'm no doctor but I did take (way) too many science classes in college that i never ended up using in my career bc I decided to not go the dietetics route too late...

I gather we won't know for another decade what's really going on since the covid vaccine was developed in record time with not many participants in the studies (when planning of mass injection to billions of people), just curious if any of you can shed some light and help out a young mom trying to get healthy. Thanks for reading.

Welcome to the low Iron club after Covid vaccination! Same for me but two Iron Infusions got my levels back to normal. Taking OTC Iron supplements too. Still have some other issues with my health that I didn''t have before. Hope you get well soon.

@tinamarie1616 hi I just read your post and wondered if you were anemic too or was your iron numbers just dropping ? I ask because I’m having low iron, low trans saturation, but my hemoglobin is at 11.3 so in the doctors eyes I’m not anemic enough I guess
