Hello the blood pressure reading to have mentioned are on the lower side. All the symptoms you have described are because of low blood pressure. . By all means you should maintain blood pressure more than 115 / 70 for her .
The best way is to decrease the dose of lisinopril as that is the reason of your symptoms.
Do keep a check when you decrease the dose and the same should be done slowly over a period of time to prevent any rebound .
