Can someone tell me if I should wait at all after dosing with Camden before back sweetening with honey?

Campden is an antioxidant, and is used all the time by winemakers.

It won't kill (or even slow) yeast, so if you're not using sorbate other otherwise stabilizing the cider before sweetening, your bottles will blow up when the honey ferments out.
