Which Medicine Among Hydracortesones, Thyroxine And Sinemet Can Drop Blood Pressure?

When I get up in morning by blood pressure is fairly normal then I take two hydracortesones 10mg and a thyroxine 125 mcg and sinemet 25/100 and my pressure drops dramatically to like 90 over 55. I have parkinsones. Could one of these meds be causing this.
