I might have emetophobia?

Whenever someone even mentions puking or nausea, I get shaky and dizzy. When someone pukes right in front of me, I have shortness of breath and feel like the world is closing in on me, as well as the urge to run as far as I can and awful shakiness. I avoid anything that might make me puke. I'm hit with panic attacks on airplanes and boats because I'm afraid someone else will puke. I don't know if I have it or not. Any thoughts?

    its quite possible, i have selachophobia and feel the exact same way whenever i see a shark on tv much less in real life. i even sometime halucinate that they could somehow get me in the shower, my phobia is quite extreme. it doesnt matter what you are phobic about all the symptoms are the same.
