    Maybe its something we may "grow out of" someday?? I only say that because me personally, I just do do things/stay away from things more when I was a kid/teenager.

    It sucks, because I love the medical field and I work in a doctor's office now...I could so handle becoming a nurse, but because of my emet, if I have to hear or deal w/ vomiting, then forget it!!!

    Some people do go to therapy for this phobia (I briefly mentioned it to a therapist I used to see, but my co pay got too expensive) but not sure if he knew what to do with it.
