Have you ever tried HCTZ (hydrochlorothiazide), along with your original BP med?

I started with 10 of Lisinopril, went to 20, then 40. After a bit the HCTZ was added. Now I'm going backwards. My BP started going way down with the 40 & 25 - like 73/47!! So my doc cut the Lisinopril down to 10 again - still taking the HCTZ, but can't take them at the same time or the bottom drops out. Very curious.
