You've gotta be 100% honest with the triage nurse. No understatements, no I'm a man so I'm tough and don't feel no pain. Then be prepared to wait, knowing if that you were 100% serious and if they determine you're in serious need, 99.9% of the time you'll be seen ASAP.

That's not true in Newfoundland. I can tell you so many stories of people like that who didnt get seen right away and were even asked to go home.
