The community already seems to be aware of this glitch. Basically, I started Totems of Hircine (and have since done many quests) although I am yet to do the cure for lycanthropy quest. Anyway, I'm basically stuck with Aela as a follower because both Jorravaskr and the underforge are locked. As a result I can't do the Boethiah quest (aside from other annoying issues with). I've read in places that this glitch has been fixed but clearly it has not. Does anyone know if there's any other method of entering the underforge or - obviously bethesda employees read this forum from time to time - if they can please, please, please fix the glitch. I'm playing on Xbox so can't use any command input things. Any responses are helpful. I don't have other saves since I deleted them to make space on my xbox hard drive, but this glitch is incredibly frustrating.

This bug was fixed with a patch, but the fix was not retroactive (it doesn't work on existing games). You will only benefit from the fix on a new game, since you have no saves to revert back to before this bug occurred. I understand your frustration (similar things have happened to me), unfortunately this is the way many of Bethesda's bug fixes work.
