Auto Immune Drugs linked to TB

The story is here.

The basic gist is you need to be tested prior to taking the injection drugs like Remicade and Enbrel as well as during the treatment period. Be aware of TB and its symptoms. TB, when diagnosed early, can be treated. It is when left untreated that it becomes fatal.

I really hadn't heard much about TB since the 70's. I remember getting the TB test yearly in school and really hadn't thought much more about it. Nor, have I thought about Nuclear Fallout Shelters, bad school lunches etc... since the 70's.

Be aware and be safe.
