Between the Fibromyalgia and the arthritis, I have a lot of trouble walking on my own.  The pain and weakness from both is bad enough, but the Fibromyalgia causes me to randomly have dizzy spells or lightheadedness.  These days I don't go anywhere but work unless I have someone to go with me.  I've tried using a cane, but the ain and weakness in my arms makes it nearly impossible.  I have been told on numerous occasions that a service dog would be a good anser for this problem, but my  mother says (she works in the medical field) that she doesn't think I'm 'to that point yet'.  How do you know?  How bad do you let it get before something like that is a reasonable solution?  Does anyone on here have a service dog?

I'm sorry this is kind of long... I just feel very lost.
