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.

seems good to me.

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

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

My nose started to bleed and wouldn’t stop.

Atheists claim that Earth is 10 billion years old, yet there are no fossils that old. What do you have to say for yourselves for lying?

I was away from home in another region of Sweden

remember this is all out of area

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.
