This thread is for my fellow migraineurs.
After contending with chronic migraines for over 50 years, and trying almost every treatment, I am finally almost migraine free. I typically get about 5-15 migraine days per month, so this is significant.

Edgardo Campos was kidnapped by fake ICE & TN Highway Patrol on his birthday. Agents violently pulled him from his car in Nashville, refusing to show a warrant or ID, then shoved him into an unmarked vehicle. No charges. No transparency.
