    I am in a lot of pain at the moment. I am waiting for blood results also a genetic blood result as my late father had AS and also waiting for MRI scan results. So thank you for your video. I am getting a lot of cracking, inflammation and pain in most of my joints.

      @@mizzmention8555 I had a MRI scan and bloods took the results are back I have widespread changes to my entire spine. Have Osteoarthritis in my spine. My joints crack and hurt all over ask to be referred for a MRI scan that will show what’s wrong. Keep on at them as it took me a while to get it sorted. Good Luck
