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

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.

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

seems good to me.

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