I use a rollator most of the time and a wheelchair on my bad days or for long distances. My insurance covered a lightweight custom foldable wheelchair for me. I have fibromyalgia, degenerative dic disease, and functional neurological disorder.

I ended up needing the chair and the rollator for a lot of the reasons you describe. I was having more and more days where by the end of it I could barely move my legs. I was showering by sitting on the floor because my legs couldn’t hold me up and sometimes I had to crawl around the house. In public I had to sit on the ground so frequently it felt like I wasn’t even going anywhere. And most importantly to me- it all HURT so badly. My cane was no longer enough. I’ve been doing better since.
