Sorry about the men coming out of the workwoodwork :-) I've been there. Chase them back in a "determined" way; that will drive them off; "I forget, are you married?" as an opener. Maybe you can put some of them to work while your foot's in the cast, get them to do some of the climbing?

I hope it is for you like it sometimes was for me; once I get somewhere I'm usually all right, can "survive" for as long as I need to and sometimes even enjoy it/have things be better than I anticipate.
