tricep tendonitis

I have had terrible pain in my tricep for the past two years, I had a cortison injection when I first got it, that lasted for about eighteen months and then it came back again only slightly worse, my doctor gave me another injection but that only lasted six months and now it is back worse than ever, I can't lift my arm above shoulder level without feeling terrible pain and stiffness, and I can't put my arm backwards or behind my back, it's like a hundred toothaches in my arm, the pain is unbearable at times, it runs all the way down my arm and up into my shoulder. Could this be more than tendonitis.
