The last time I saw my Rhuemy he wrote me out a script for a cane.  I wasn't so sure that I want to get one, but about two weeks latter I broke down and went to the medical store and they fitted me with a cane.  I ended up with one of the 4 pt ones.  
I'm glad I got it.  It helps me so much at work getting in and out of my desk.  I also use it for church on Sundays because it helps me get up and down the stairs of the alter (I sing w/the music dirrector in church).  It also saved me from falling yesterday with the slippery sidewalks.  It's nice to have for the extra support.  My boss also jokes with me that I can use it as a wepon if anyone gets out of hand at work!
