Would a cortisone shot help my elbows? I have had golfer's elbow (tendinidous) in one of them for over a year.

A cortisone shot could help you depending. Have you stopped the activity that caused your golfer's elbow? If you haven't stopped that, it's just going to keep coming back.
I've had a couple and they do help but they hurt a lot when you get them

Yes, probably for a short time it would. You need to be wearing a support brace below that elbow and taking anti-inflammatories(aspirin and ibuprophen with food). Resting the arm would help also.

it will make you feel better but it will also put a lot of weight on you that is hard to get off
