To my RRS "fake" doctors

I have a marathon next weekend and I really don't want to miss this race, four weeks ago I developed a bad case of runners knee. In the last four weeks I got a Cortisone shot, have been doing PT, and got several sport massages so I was hoping another shot would help completing my healing/pain.

Every thing I read says you should wait 3 months before a second shot, but really don't have time to wait.

After this race I plan to take 1-2 months off from running so will be able to heal afterwards..any thoughts to trying and get another shot
