Rash from Flagyl

Has anyone ever gotten a rash from Flagyl. I was put on it for a flare and about 5-7 days on it, I started breaking out in a mild rash on the torso. The rash seemed to blister up. I quit taking it and I'm still getting some new places to show up. I have taken this in the past lots of times but never had this reaction before.
 
I wonder if you have shingles. Have you tried any Benadryl to counteract if indeed this is an allergic reaction?

Did you let your doctor know? This can be the sign of an allergic reaction.

Shingles is very painful so if that is accompanying your rash it might be something to consider.
