Have you tried swimming? Very low impact way of strengthening your core muscles... it's probably not weakness related, but the stronger you make your legs/knees the better.
Would also try supplements like cod liver oil, and garlic. Quit anything like running, get decent quality shoes/trainers with arch support, and do them up nice and snugly.
Might also be worth investing in a specialist to look over your riding position. I met a guy at the end of the Norwich 50 who specialised in riders, their position on the bike and alleviating pain. Can't remember his name, but I think I might have the flyer he gave me at home.
