Typing "wretching" would have taken you to the correct word, "retching." Unfortunately, with all dictionaries, you need to know the basic word to look up the spelling.
Good luck!

nonexistent and reexcision for example.....
et cetera........
and so there should be no hyphen medically either but YOU ARE SO RIGHT, depends on who you work for #1, Client profile #2....and all QA personnel because some mark you correct and some mark you incorrect when you don't use a hyphen or use a hyphen in these cases.

I got mine here. It's the best price I found. I couldn't see spending $17 on one. This one is $9. Also, the shipping on it seemed pretty steep at the time, almost as much or more than the adapter, so I emailed and asked if it could be sent in a small mailing envelope via usps. They told me they could do that and just charged $2 for the shipping. Here's the link:
