Hi Lilacmoonlite,
It does sound like you are having an allergic reaction. However, since you have only experienced this twice in the two years you've been taking your blood pressure medication it's unlikely the allergic reaction is due to the medication. I recommend working with your physician to determine what is causing the rash and additional symptoms.
All the best,
