What am I doing wrong? 17 month old?

Hi,
Just after a little advice as I am at my wits end and exhausted.
LB is 17 months and has always been a good sleeper but recently he was poorly and in hospital (nothing serious) 6 weeks later he is still not sleeping through.
We have a great bed time routine and he goes down really well at 645-7 but then wakes every 2-3 hours screaming. If I go in the screaming gets worse if I leave him it goes on and on. I've tried putting him bed with me but he just fights and cries. Pushing him in his pram has been the only way of settling him.
Last night I went in checked all as ok temp, not wet, blanket and them I sat in the floor outside his room and he cried himself to sleep after about 30 minutes. I hated every second of this but I can't keep putting him in his pram every night.
Just don't know what to do or what I'm doing wrong.
We both work full time and I start at 7 am and it's starting to effect my work.
Sorry for long post just sat in works car park not sure what to do next.
Thanks in advance for any advice x
