6 yr old son has had morning vomiting w/ belly pain & red dry looking rash on body(rash for 7 days, vomiting 2 mornings) then acts normal rest of day?

Hard to say: A dry red rash can be a sign of a strept infection known as scarletina. There may be an obvious strept throat or a less obvious strept infection elsewhere. If it is persisting, he should be seen by his doctor.
