In terms of pain control. There is not anything I can take.

MW, I'm very proud for you!
Of course you can't back away! Not your job! But, folks do want to show their affection. What can you do? Make a little plan with one or two of your closest friends, (bring them in on it). And, get to tears. (This will spread around, with my knowledge of friends circles). Am I wrong?
So, Only use a friend or two that you can trust to 'Shut Up' about it, and news will spread. Or, you're gonna hafto print out 'Do Not Touch' and put it on your front and back! Haha!
Ridiculous, right?
Otherwise, you can do the Mature thing, and simply explain to everyone, one at a time, that you can't be touched!
I still recommend, that perhaps your pain control is not adequate. If I can help, PM me?
I'm here..... Have been for a while......
Pete, yer pal....
