    Re: What does my x-ray mean? And why wouldn't these same results show up on an MRI?

    It an incidental thing, kinda cool which means that one of the sacral segments (which are separated at birth but ossify to form one bone) did not fully transform. It probably has nothing to do with your discomfort and can be something to show at dinner parties. So unfortunately for all purposes you are normal

    Back/SIJ discomfort is 100% normal as well, I got mine first at age 25. Just get to some good rehabilitation exercise type classes and you get sorted and learn how to self manage one of those life long (albeit it intermittent) nuisances.
