Yes. Since neurotransmitters (including epinephrine - or adrenaline) are more heavily represented in the gut, than in any other organ outside of the brain, fear is a powerful stimulus in the digestive system, not only causing indigestion, but also diverting blood flow away from the intestines to the muscles - in preparation for the body's "fight or flight" responses.
