Just got back from the physio and guess what? My self diagnosis was right, I do indeed have Illiotibial band (friction) syndrome or ITB(F)S.
The physio had a good reaction after seeing how out of line my leg is, i.e. where the muscle line runs and how my foot is at a strange angle to my knee, an 'oj shit' were the words that came out.
No surprises with the treatment though, a few stretches and some rest. He's going to take a look at my hip (rotation etc) in 2 weeks, so will rest up waiting for me to hit the squash courts again.
My reasoning for the vet is similar too. Our little monster had a hurrendous limp, to the point of not walking, so back down the clinic, some painkillers prescribed and the diagnosis of panosteitis or pano.....I got it in one, haha
May be I'm in the wrong business.
