Guest guest Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Before I went on Enbrel, I also had the TB tine test. It came back positive, but since I had a history of bronchitis they retested me and did lung x-rays to rule it out. It took 3 more months but I have been on Enbrel now for 4 years.
