Update

So they did another bone marrow biopsy and aspirate. This time they did not use the ct and it was actually performed by the guy who trained me. They had a hard time getting an aspiration due to the previous radiation that J has received. They now sent that off to pathology and to microbiology. We talked to an orthopedic oncologist about the stuff going on in his pelvis and he believes that we are actually dealing with two different issues. He thinks the stuff in Jason's hip is osteonecrosis and is unrelated to what is going on in his sacrum. He is talking with his attending about the open biopsy for Friday and we have an pelvic xray and mri in the mean time. We also talked with a neurologist as well and all of Jason's other problems is due to what is happening in the sacrum. His markers are still normal but he is reasonably sure that this is a cancer, still we dont know what type. So he is going to talk to his attending about an open biopsy for the sacrum. That is where we are now....just waiting.....still......
