Toe woes

Went to the Dr. Friday night after I fell down the stairs and sure enough my toe is broken.  When I think about a toe being broken I think get some tape, wrap it to another toe, take some Motrin and move on with your life.  Apparently when you break your big toe that is not the case.  I am not aloud to put any weight on the toe, I have to wear a splint that goes all the way to the calf, take pain killers and anti inflammatory, walk using crutches and take a trip to a specialist who may decide to actually cast me.  Who would have thought one broken toe could be such a hassle.  I asked the Dr. how long it would take before I could get out and hit the pavement again and I was told that was going to be up to the specialist.  hhhmmm   
You know last week on Wed. I went in to the Dr. for a physical at which time the Dr. gave me a prescription for PT on my arm/shoulder.  So with a bum shoulder and a bum leg how in the world am I supposed to get any exercise in?  I know push ups to not hurt my arm and it would not hurt my toe if I did the modified ones and of course sit ups/crunches would not hurt the arm or toe... but what else can I do?  I wonder if I could ride a bike?  Between my arm, toe, and the fact that this week I had pink eye.... I have more issues then National Geographic :(
