You can be x-rayed to see if you have Spina Bifida Occulta, the mildest form of Spina Bifida. If you have the more severe form, myelomeningocele, your parents would know it at least when you are born, if not before through ultrasounds.

Many people with Spina Bifida Occulta never know they have it.

Yes, you can be. It usually is combined with spina bifida.
