Default Self Diagnosis PN?

Three months ago started getting weird head pains; dizzy, throbbing. Went to Doc and said to double my Blood pressure med, Lisinopril as my BP was 150/98
A month ago, started getting tingling and numbness in my fingers and toes at night only. Now it's up my right arm. I also feel like someone punched me in face as I have dull pain under right eye. Acupuncturist said I have a pinched nerve. Primary doc said its in my head. Brain scan was negative as well as chest X-ray.
Hours of web search and found links to Lisinopril and PN. I've been on it for 10 years and I'm 57yrs old. A anyone with similar story? I think I need to be tested for PN . Who does that? Blood test was clean. Doing a RBC magnesium test to check this essential mineral in our body.

Damn pain.
