What Causes Tingling In Face, Hands And Arms While On Lisinopril?

I have been taking 10mg lysinopril for three years and recently have developed every other day skin tingling around my face and sometimes my hands and arms.......I thought that this was the original symptom of high blood pressure so I hadn t concluded that it might be a side effect of the medicine. I take my blood pressure 3-4 time weekly and it is never over 125/78 during these tingling times. I tried cutting the dose in half and can t tell the difference. Any ideas. I am a 61 year old female. Also recently quit taking NSAIDS after years and years of pain from arthritis.
