I hope it's nothing major - I know you've been working for a long time for this.
I think I've been having IT band issues, too. Have you tried IT band stretches? I found some on the Runner's World website and have gotten some relief from them. I hate to say it, but I'm not 100% yet and it's been about a month since this all started. I've only been doing the stretches for about a week though.
Maybe someone else has some other suggestions. Knee stuff is all new to me. Good luck - hope you get it resolved and finish that HIM that you've earned.

I also insisted on running on it and ignoring it which made it worse though thankfully I saw sense when I realised I was contemplating taking ibuprofen to allow me to run. Its a personal rule of mine to not do exercise if I have to take a painkiller first. Luckily biking was ok and I kept my fitness up.
, it was possibly the most painful hour of my life (and I paid for the privilege) but it worked. I jetted off on holiday to NYC the day after the massage and spent a weak walking around which wasn't the best plan but once I came back and got off my feet for a bit recovery was quite swift for the ITB issues though I had other problems aside from this.
