Haven’t felt quite right since I received my 2nd (Pfizer) Covid shot in April ‘21. Went for annual checkup in Summer ‘21 but skipped the bloodwork (weight and blood pressure were good) Scheduled annual checkup in Nov. ‘22 but couldn’t see new Dr. until Jan.’23. What I had noticed in the last year was 1. Tired easily 2. If kneeling got out of breath quickly 3. Laying down if I got up quickly felt light headed 4. Recently (in last 2 months) towards end of daily walk felt winded, light headed, heart beating faster than normal and calfs very tight and hurting. Went for bloodwork after Dr. visit and got call to see Dr. asap about results.… He informed me I was extremely iron deficient and asked if it ran in family? It didn’t, and if you looked at my history you would see I’d never been. Am 68 years old and have never taken anything but daily vitamins and supplements. I knew I shouldn’t have taken the vaccine and did it anyway. Another dope who trusted the science.

I’m sorry this is happening to you, I have the same issue. Hand they done any testing to determine the cause of the iron deficiency?

I'm 63 and my story is almost identical to yours, except as a frequent blood donor I had documentation of my iron level dropping immediately after two Pfizer shots. Several thousand dollars in out of pocket diagnostic expense and 3 infusions later my levels are back to normal for now. You will find many similar stories on this thread.

I am also having the same issues and I am waiting for my bloodwork to try and find out how to fix my iron deficiency problem.

I felt the same as you after getting Pfizer Bivalent booster after two months I worried medical staff, get a blood transfusion. That helped but Hgb 7.9 and Hematocrit still low. Taking iron elizer but don't feel good most of the time. Have to wait until the vaccine diminishes from my cells. What a fool I was getting the vaccine!
