I went to PT for 4 months and had hot wax baths up to my elbow, trigger massage, corrective stretches. I wear a brace for sleeping. I learned to mouse with my non-dominant hand. I had to stop typing for a while. Now I take frequent breaks and have a super ergo keyboard and mouse with my left (non-dominant hand).

Do you do alot of texting or phone work? Those tiny movements repeatedly can really cause problems for the tendons in the arm, like over-using my mouse hand did for me. It won't get better until you identify what's causing and either stop that motion or modify it.
I do play on the computer a lot (Us retired folks get to do that...), but I don't type much and I haven't been "mousing around" much either. I rarely ever text message with my phone. I cannot think of anything repetitive that I do that could cause stress to both elbows.

I have had problems with my elbows off and on for years now, but it has never lasted this long before.
