Enbrel HIV transmission

Hi - I recently had sex with a sex worker in an Eastern European country with high HIV rates (as much as 10% among sex workers). During sex the condom broke so I was unprotected for a short period.

I am concerned because I take Enbrel, which is an immuno-suppresant. Does Enbrel seriously increase the risk of transmission?

Thanks for the replies guys, I guess my question was am I more susceptible to contracting the virus due to Enbrel? If so to what extent?
