Eczema & Allergies

We took Noah to his pediatrician today for a little rash on his shoulder that turns out is eczema. He has also had some congestion over the last few weeks that has not cleared despite his nasal rinsing and humidifier. We had the adenoidectomy back in Feb so it's too soon for his adenoids to have grown back and we were hoping this would be the last of his "nasal" issues. But unfortunately he's been having that little congestion in his nose as well as a bit of snoring during his sleep sometimes. 
Nonetheless, she prescribed him Atarax and I'm not very familiar with it. It's an anti-histamine that is used for itchiness and can also be used for nausea from motion sickness as well as anxiety. It causes marked drowsiness so we're going to just try and give it to him when he's really bad or at bedtime. I don't know, just seems weird to me. We decided to spray some Nasonex as well to see if that helps a little. He's been having some vomiting episodes the last couple of days where his throw up looks like (perhaps TMI, I apologize) globs of phlegm and he's really bearing down/retching to bring it out. So something's definitely going on. 
I think it's time to start getting some allergy testing in order. It's allergy season around here and I'm just wondering if he has severe seasonal allergies that are onsetting this vomiting.  So he now has 3 more meds added to the long list of medications he's on at any given time.  This preemie thing is no joke.
