Does arthritic elbow mean I can't lift weights?

Hi, I'm 69 and started lifting some weights when I started T a year ago, but stopped soon after. I thought I had started too fast and given myself a case of tennis elbow. I gave it 7 months of rest; it got a bit better so I started lifting again. I've been lifting about 5 months and have made some amazing gains, but the elbow is hurting more and more . . . at this point I thinks it's old fashioned arthritis. When exercising I put on elbow wraps and sometimes top those off with a tension band on top. Afterwards it's ice . . . and plenty of hope. I've started on fish oil since I hear that might help.

I love the combined impact of exogenous Testosterone and exercise on my body. But am I fooling myself? Will I have to stop exercising because of the elbow? Any suggestions?
