    I am having this done in October for my right elbow. After many of the different treatments and shots over the last year and half this is the last option. Was wondering if anyone on here has had it and how it worked and how recovery went.

    Thank You!

    I had this done June 3rd 2015 due to tendons tearing off the elbow inside ... it's been 5 months I was told it's either going to work or it wouldn't.... unfortunately for me all the pain has returned and I'm considering another cortisone injection ... gl with your surgery smile

    Hi bobbie how did the operation go hope it went well! I had mine done on the 29th October so 2 weeks on now, still very painful when moving arm.

    Did you get Physio after your op as I've just been told to move it as much as possible, don't know if I'm doing too much or too little.

    Would be good to know who you are doing
