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

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.

My nose started to bleed and wouldn’t stop.

If you were to bet, will Canada bend over to Trump's America demands or remain inflexible until the last day of his Presidency on January 20, 2029? Will America or Canada win this geopolitical arm-wrestling? I'm rooting for America.

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

remember this is all out of area

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

Is it possible for the U.S. government to get rid of the constitution for national safety?

I was away from home in another region of Sweden

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

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

How does the narcissist react when he realizes you no longer care?

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

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.

What was the most inappropriate thing your parent caught you doing as a teen? Was in the bedroom, I thought nobody else was home. My sister and I shared that bedroom but I knew she was gone. I didn’t know my dad was home though.

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.

seems good to me.
