Currently on meds for sinuitis?

I'm currently taking Biaxin in liquid form (Pediatrics, seeing as I'm only 13). And I tend to get sinusitis a lot so my mom decided on taking me to my family doctor on the 24th of Nov so I can maybe see a specialist and have an allergy test done.
I think I may have some allergies, like pollen, grass, dust but nothing severe like a peanut or food allergy.

I'm feeling a lot better with the medication, but I'm just wondering what exactly happens during an allergy test? I have an appointment for feb 15 for the allergist but since we're going on nov 24 to my family doctor so I can maybe go to an allergist sooner and get a test.
Thanks.

Also not to mention I am asthmatic and I am taking Singulair 5 mg and Advair 250 for a week until my sinusitis clears up. And I first got the Biaxin from a walk-in clinic doctor if that helps.

this test is called a prick test,normally on your back. different liquids are placed into your skin such as dust, ragweed,mold,dog hair,cat hair.mildew ETC all positive ones will turn red and itchy.

Joe G is right about the kind of testing that is done to discover what you are allergic to. I would only add that it doesn't hurt.
You will probably have to stop taking the singulair a few days before your allergy tests so they can get accurate readings
