"Maybe you have.." thinking they're providing a solution.

Chronic fatigue, Costochrondritis, Fibromyalgia, Autoimmune, Inflammation, Neuralgia, +++ .. 🙄

Unfortunately, treating symptoms is how medicine often works, but it rarely addresses the actual cause.
This needs to change.

I'm not rubbing.

The hole that you're wearing in your shirt says otherwise.
