I was told by Dr. Nguyen, a prominent Orthopedist in Orlando, that gel shots only work 60% of the time and generally provide relief for a few months. It didn't work at all for me and I had a cortisone shot which provided complete relief for 4-5 months. If you opt for the gel shot, don't waste your money on the $1000 knee brace they recommend. I found it to be very uncomfortable and a complete waste of money.
