Can you explain if it's possible to prevent vomiting when you are sick?

Yes: There are medications known as anti-emetics, which are very good at preventing vomiting. The key here is to figure out why you are sick and treat that. I would recommend that you see your primary care doctor for initial evaluation. Depending on what he finds, he may send you to a gastroenterologist. Regardless, they may be able to prescribe medicines for your vomiting. Good luck.
