Doxycycline. Blisters on penis

On January 1st i noticed a blister on the head of my penis. Over the next couple of weeks this bust then then developed into a painful open sore, this continued until it slowly decreased in size and disapeared over a month later, by 5th February. not only was this painful it was humiliating and triggered a period of depression. i went to the Sexual health clinic as soon as i could when it started, i had just been told i had Chlamydia and wondered if it was a connected STI. over several weeks the clinic tested for and treated all STIs they could think of, this included getting re-treated for Chlamydia with Doxycycline. the only suggestion i was given was i probebly got a cut on my penis and it got infected.

then in the middle of July, the day after starting a course if Doxycycline, i woke up one day and there were more blisters. i was tested for Monkeypox and had to self isolate for a week before the results came back. in that week the whole of the head of my penis became a painful open sore covered in yellow mucus. i was referred to dermatology where a dr suggested it was a fixed drug eruption, reaction to the Doxycycline. it has now been 2 weeks since the blisters started,it is slowly improving but still extremely painful. I am posting this because i could not find any ither case like this and maybe it could help others.
