Yes, my rheumy "UNdiagnosed" my seropositive Ankylosing Spondylitis just because HE "couldn't see any clinical evidence of it" so he also took me off of my Enbrel. I just had a neck CT that showed cervical fusion in TWO DIFFERENT spots in my neck! This happened within 8 months of stopping the Enbrel. I'm so angry 🤬! I go to see him next week and I am going to demand an explanation!
