Is it common for medical students to enter the medical field and have a nervous reaction to the sight of blood (blood phobia)?

I was accepted into a nursing program which begins at the end of August and am dead set on overcoming the fear. I believe that maybe with enough exposure, you become de-sensitized to it?? #medicine #nursing
