therapeutic phlebotomy tiredness

Hello I'm new to the site (apologies if this has been covered before), and I had a question for those of you that have had iron overload and needed phlebotomies...have you been tired for a couple of days afterwards? I am getting phlebotomies once a month and just had my third one yesterday and feel exhausted and achy and sick. Has anyone experienced that or am I just odd? My last ferritin level was 4934 so I'm wondering how I'm supposed to deal with feeling like this each time.
