To those people in the world who have access to universal healthcare, what experiences could you share with Americans in order for us to understand how it affects your life (positively or negatively)?

After around 30mins I was called by a nurse who checked my nose. She then went to get a Dr to look further. This Dr then got another Dr to check and confer with.

They concluded I needed to be referred to the hospital in the next city (40 miles away) and booked an appointment for me for the next day.

After an examination by a junior doctor, and a consultation with the consultant. I had a small surgical procedure, and went home.

Ive been pretending to be okay and acting as normal as possible, but Im actually completely heartbroken after a recent breakup. Its painful and really affecting me, to the point where I cant concentrate at work, Ive lost my appetite, I cant sleep, and It feels as if my whole world has been turned upside down. I loved him so much. He said so many cruel things to me and it made me realize he must not have loved me the way I loved him, or he wouldnt have said such horrible things. How do I handle the heartbreak and why cant I accept that he didnt love me and just forget about him?

seems good to me.

I saw 4 Drs, 1 of whom was a specialist, and supporting staff. I had a small surgery.

I walked into the local health centre and explained my problem and asked if I could see someone.

How many women have accidentally pooped their pants and became turned on afterwards?

I was told they were busy but would fit me in when they could but likely it would be 2–3 hours, especially since I was out of area, and not one of their patients. If I remember correctly I paid 200Sek ($20 approx) and sat and waited.

Most answers seem to be from the UK, so I will relate my experience here in Sweden.

remember this is all out of area

I vibrated my dogs shock collar while it was eating my other dog’s food and now it won’t eat. How do I fix this problem?

I was leaving the hospital less than 24 hours from first walking into the health centre.

My nose started to bleed and wouldn’t stop.

I was away from home in another region of Sweden

Do you like wearing short skirts?

I went to the hospital the next day, paid 400 Sek ($40 ish) and went to the ENT department.

In total I paid roughly $60 + parking
