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)?

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.

My nose started to bleed and wouldn’t stop.

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.

What is the most overrated pleasure? Why?

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

In total I paid roughly $60 + parking

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

Why do some people hesitate to say 'I love you' even after their partners have said it first? How can one interpret this behavior from their loved ones?

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

seems good to me.

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

Jenny from Perth writes – my partner is the life of the party, women and men adore him. But at home, he gets angry at us for the silliest reasons and never nice words me or our kids, always putting us down. Should I stay or leave him?

I was away from home in another region of Sweden

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.

remember this is all out of area

Who is the most dangerous or evilest person of all time?

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

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