New Bloomfield, PA

I'm to be getting my pneumonia vaccine the same day my Humira shot is due. Does anyone know if you can do both the same day or should there be a distance between the two? I know when I go to the dentist my rheumatologist recommended a 3 day wait on the shot.

My doctor did the pneumococcal pneumonia shot the same day I did my @enbrel injection, I told him I always did my @enbrel shot on Tuesday and he said no problem. Different docs may have different ideas about that.

I don't know, but I had mine on Monday & took my shot on Thursday, but the doctor didn't tell me to wait.
