@ericjay, I can imagine that you are worried. Iron deficiency anemia can have many causes. See this article:
- Iron deficiency anemia https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/iron-deficiency-anemia/symptoms-causes/syc-20355034
It sounds like your doctors are working to raise your platelets and iron. What testing are they doing to confirm the cause?

anemia can be caused by HHT. That's Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia. Also called Osler, Weber, Rendu. For more info go to
curehht.org
They can be contacted (and will respond!). Many drs are not aware of HHT; therefore you need to see a doctor who is very familiar with it. Note: VERY familiar. Please start with the website.

Doctors don't really know what effects the Covid vaccines have on our bodies.Still experimental! I did not have blood loss that is the only possible reason for Hgb,HCT,MCV,MCH,MCHC being very low, but my RBC counts were at normal levels 4.26,Platelet count high but going down. My PA suggested going to a Hematologist, Cardiologist, getting brain and neck Cat/CT scan, colonoscopy, scoped for gastro disorders, taking iron elixir and having CBC again 2-4 wks.
What I would like to know is the vaccine Pfizer Bivalent mRNA Covid-19, going to stay in my cells, how long until the vaccine has no effect?Will the effects be permanent?
