Hi Belinda,
It sounds like you and I have a little in common. I've been on 13-15 different AED's and I has surgery done twice to remove a scar on the RTL. I finally found out that I was drug resistant. My Epi did a special DNA blood test on me and found that I was drug resistant or just like you I would break out with a rash. I've had E. for 37 yrs. and the only 2 drugs that have helped me the most is mysoline (primidone) and Diamox. You might want to have your neuro. do a DNA blood test on you to find out what's going on and if any meds can help you with the least side effects. Here's wishing you well and May God Bless You!
