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)?

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

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

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

How safe is it to travel to Kashmir in 2024?

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

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 are the coolest new smart home gadgets to upgrade your living space?

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.

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.

Is it possible that my TF caused a kundalini awakening in another person? He is famous because He is a singer. We have not met physically yet, but I have gone through kundalini awakening and DNOTS and their ongoing. I have also had soul recognition so I know for sure that He is my Divine Counterpart and I do not have any doubts about it. But it is indeed perplexing that somebody had an awakening at the physical level because of Him. Is it a test for me? I have a mixture of feelings. On one hand I marvelled at Him and empathised with the person and on the other, I doubt if this just a test for me. I would appreciate your pov. Thank you for much.

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.

seems good to me.
