Alright, in light of "Sicko" coming out, here's something I would really like to see (and yes, I've already watched it). This thread will NOT be a debate on the goods and evils of Socialized healthcare, nor will it be a contest between the American HMO insurance/privatized system and Universal healthcare.
I'd like to see stories from those that are not citizens of the US.
Have you had great experiences with the healthcare systems in your country? Bad experiences/horror stories?
Medical treatment stories, a condition or emergency you've had, how you were treated, any follow ups or tests that needed to happen, and how you fared through everything. You don't have to disclose any directly personal information, obviously, but I'd really like to know how you were treated, how much you had to pay, if at all, and anything you noticed during your hospital or doctor visits.
No flaming, just stories. I really want to get an overall look of how well people are treated in other systems in other countries.
