I have both tennis elbow, and golfers elbow..tennis on my left arm, golfers on right..

And have never played either sport..

The pain is such that affects quality of life all around, from barely being able to lift a coffee cup.. to not being able to do much upper body work outs at the gym..

Get the shot... cortisone, then rehab.. I found the stretches and various exercises had no benefit prior to getting the shot..

And a few months after the shot, the golfers elbow returned... the tennis elbow arm still feels fine.. so I have an appointment to get another shot of cortisone next week.
