Wow, Kathy, you sound just like me. Let's just say my stomach and I have never had the best of relationships. The first thing I do when I go someplace new is look for the bathroom. I'm glad to know someone else has these same fears. I threw up in class in 8th grade. I've never really gotten over that in my mind. I always felt like less of a person because I was old enough to control myself but didn't. I'm 35 now and still feel self-conscious about that part of my past. It seems silly to keep looking back on that moment, but it shaped who I am today. I'm not really sure how to get rid of this fear of embarassment. Good luck!
