Hi all, I looked up emetophobia on the web and went to one site I hadn't seen before
http://emetophobia.bravepages.com/vomiting.htmlI found an interesting clip in it:
There is also an operation called a fundoplication performed in severe cases of acid reflux. Most people who have them are unable to burp or vomit for the rest of their lives. We are unaware of anyone having a fundoplication due to emetophobia.
******WARNING*******
Beware when you look on the site as there may be some articles on there that some people may find graphic - do NOT read "one man's experience with ipecac" unless you feel you can - it's not nice.
