Yes, it should show up on an x-ray...my sister in law suffers from spondylitis, and hers had shown up on an x-ray...but I can't help but wonder if the disease isn't as advanced as hers was; if it might not be as easy to see on an x-ray though. Well, if the doctor is already aware of just what he's looking for, then there shouldn't be a problem with him seeing it on an x-ray
