Bro just take time off about 3-4 months for the cortisol to leave your system then start really light and week after week increase weight really slowly until you reach a comfortable weight in which you can still train and make gains.
The doctor told me the same bullshit gave me the same cortizone shot that ended up hurting way more than helping in the long run. The doctor told me to stop training completely i actually listened for a while i lost a lot of muscle and strength now i am back in the gym and refuse to stop. Im younger than you but with the same issues. i have shitty genetics pretty much born with early onset arthritis that started in childhood.
I would invest in some good knee braces (some velcro ones for like $20 should be fine, dont get the ones in the $100- $500 range they suck for arthritis).
I wouldnt wear any braces while training legs as you can cause further damage to the knee joint especially if they are the type to compress the patella. Cortisone lowers inflamation which can make it difficult to gain muscle as well as to gauge and pain or damage you could be doing and not realising it.
