Abatacept and a chest infection !

[petalnumber2]

Hi everyone, I have only been on Abatacept injections for seven weeks and I must admit to feeling a bit strange directly after injecting myself. So, I do give myself time to just sit for a bit until the feeling has past. However, I am struggling with a bad chest infection which started just a few days ago, and I have been told not to do my injections for the next two weeks to enable the antibiotics to do their job. That's fine by me, and normal of course, but I wonder if anyone else has had the same sort of experience ? I would appreciate any feedback. June xx

Coming up to 4 years on Abatacept but cannot recall chest infection. At the start I would often sleep the next afternoon but not so much now - more so if I forget to inject in the morning and do it at night.
