How far from the vet are you, Lorrie? We're in the same position here, 30 mile from 2 vets(in different towns) who would charge a fortune in travelling fees and for everything else they could get away with. Another vet, further afield, always tries to save people money, will send what I need, and he even breezes in on his way past if he knows I have a problem here, without charging me travelling. We've known him for 30 years though, so he has a good idea of the extent (or lack) of my knowledge. The good thing about that Ilium Neocort is that as well as cortisone I think it has lignocaine in it too, to deaden the pain. Tastes revolting too, which is a help in deterring them from chewing. I hope your lovely boy gets some relief now anyway.
I would have thought 30 horses might be just a bit more than a hobby, but there you are.
