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)?

seems good to me.

My nose started to bleed and wouldn’t stop.

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

After 70 years of the crappiest computers ever made, why does IBM exist?

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

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

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

What are the psychological reasons behind an extreme obsession with another human being?

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

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.

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.

Do you think it is likely that Maegor was presented a young dragon at some point, almost to the point of full-bonding, only to scorn it for Balerion in the end? If so, which one could it have been?

In total I paid roughly $60 + parking

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.

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

Short story writers, what is your favorite character you've created and do they appear in more than one of your works?

I was away from home in another region of Sweden
