Iron Depletion in Blood related to COVID?

I hope your husband does well. Good luck discussing the results of the vaccine (low iron) with your doctor. I have not heard of any Docs admitting the cause was the vaccine. It's like they are told not to discuss. I went through the same thing with low iron after two Pfizer shots. Still do not have good levels yet after two infusions and taking daily Iron. I mentioned my thoughts to two doctors as was mostly ignored. BTW, no boosters for me!

Ya I asked my hematologist if he was seeing any correlation or heard of anything about sudden low iron/ferritin and COVID or COVD vaccine. I also got the 2 initial Pfizer shots and no boosters. My hematologist honestly stated he's been so busy the past year it's been hard to even keep up with published journals let alone correlations and his colleagues seemed to be in the same boat. All he could say is that he is more busy with IV iron than he ever has been.
on another note - hearing a handful of people that have COVID now and they're boosted so it seems it's not even effective anymore at preventing a cold. I actually got COVID about a month ago and it was super mild case. Probably one of the most mild colds I've ever had. BUT i did take a bunch of vitamins and benadryl and such before even testing positive. Still taking vit D, zinc, magnesium and now Allegra (although I think Benadryl worked better and nurse said to try Pepcid).
Good luck to you and hope you get well soon!
