Hello there I have read through your question and would like to tell you that lisnopril is an anti hypertensive and is given to keep the Blood pressure under control.The pain and tingling you are experiencing is because of your rheumatoid arthritis. You have to consult your physician regarding that as you may need to take an anti rheumatic drug like hydroxychloroquine or salfasalazine depending upon which suits you better and it's side effect profile. As these are prescription drugs you have to consult your physician before starting it. I hope that answers your question. If you have any further questions please feel free to write. Thank you for choosing healthcare magic.
