Answers:
You learn to deal with it sweetie!.

I wanted to be a surgeon too and worked in hospital theatre, assisting in surgery for a while!.

in your training you learn to look at what you are fixing rather than as something gross on a person!.

there were times when i felt a little grossed out but the job at hand is far more important and you get over it quickly!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If you are just thinking or actually starting a university in the fall, you may very well change your mind!. And that it totally OK!. And not because you don't like blood, etc!. The courses that you have to take at college to even qualify to be considered for med school are killers!. Seriously, they are very intense and very, very hard!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

well do you think that slicing someone open with blood splattering all over the place would be fun!?!?!.!. Take a look at Rotten!.com!.!.!.!.they have pictures of autopsies and so forth, people getting decapitated and smashed up and mangled in accidents, seriously diseased testicles and other disgusting things!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.

If that is to your liking, maybe surgery IS for you!. Far more important than being sqeamish is excellent hand eye cordination!.!.!.if you are clumsy, or all thumbs, FORGET about surgery!!!!!!!!!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

If u want something!.!.!.u get it no matter what stand on your way!.!.!.

That's all I'm gonna say!.!.!.I hate being hurt and tackled but because I want to be a part of our high school football team!.!.!.I signed up for it and made it!.!.We have practice everyday and next months would be the hardest practice (the heat, the coaches, excruciating drills) I'm not gonna quit!.!.!.
