Cortisone shot for tendinitis?

[Shinobi]

Hey brother Ive been battling severe tendonitis now for about 1 year..it recently got so bad I went and had an MRI done on my elbow because I thought I had torn something or ripped a tedon...it came back negative on that but it showed SEVERE inflammation....it was so bad it would wake me up at night and when I woke up in the morning I could hardly move my arm, wash my hair...ect.......Like some have said, and it sucks trust me, your going to have to take the weights down big time and let it heal..ive had 2 cortizone shots in each elbow and it didnt do shit for me, but some people do have sucess...now for the answer......my friend does ultimate fighting in Orlando...and he had this in BOTH elbows...ive tried about 5 anti inflammatories with no success until he told me to try one called Cataplan...or the generic called Diclofenac Potassium at 50 mg's....3x a day...they WILL definitely help your problem...ive been on them for about 2 weeks and while the pain hasnt completely gone away...im back working out and I havent done that for a real long time...I hope this helps man because this has been the worse and most costly injury ive ever had............oh and these can be very harsh on your stomach...definitely take them with food and watch the booze...they can tear up your stomach something wicked

Husky, I've been using Cataplan and although it did help in the beggining but now the pain is back and is the same. I also had the same problem as u : I was in bed and could feel sharp pains on my elbows... now imagine while training!

Yeah man.....dont get me wrong..I still have pain while lifting but its more managable now....the worst is in the mornings..like I said feels like I woke up with a metal stake driven through my elbow...sucks but Im trying to live with it...ofcourse my Dr. said, maybe you should stop lifting! Maybe you should kiss my ass Doc! I think im going to have an Ortho look at my MRI results..I cant believe they only found "severe inflamation" HAS ANYONE HAD ANY EXPERIENCE WITH PROLOTHERAPY??????????????
