hey ides is it possible that AS wouldnt show up on an xray but would on a MRI?

also what areas would they normally xray to dx AS??

they only xrayed my shoulder, right wrist, and right and elbow which I thought was funny

cuz I have pain in my right leg, knee, ribs, and spine...its like my PCP didnt even listen to me, I need to get a firm dx on what is causing this pain

oh also and one more question??? does the hla marker or whatever ALWAYS show up??

I think Ive read on here several times from other members that AS is hard to get dx and the markers dont always show up
