yup sounds like lateral epicodylitis, or tennis elbow for the non medical. The rheumatologist consultant confirmed to me on tuesday that I do not have arthritis but have tennis elbow.(god knows how GP didn't pick this up but he does always refer to Whipps X if unsure on anything)

If you press on the bony it part it should really sting , tubigrip or elbow clasp will ease the pain.

As always go to GP he will confirm (hopefully) or refer to Consultant
