Lisinopril and blood thinner

I had been taking lisinopril for about a month when I began having nose bleeds and bleeding piles. My doctor insisted that it was not the lisinopril and pointed out the Plavix I was taking is a blood thinner. He didn't say it directly, but I inferred that he suggested I reduce the Plavix, which I did. But the bleeding has stilling continued irregually.
Then about a month ago, I woke up with tinkling in my hands and feet, although I sleep only on my back in my recliner. After several days of this, I check the info sheet that comes with the medication. It states that lisinopril may cause swelling of hands and feet. Since once before, when a pharmacist told me another medication could cause swelling of the extremities and when I got the numbness and tinkling I called and he confirmed it was the same thing.
Any way, I stopped the lisinopril completely and informed my doctor thru his medical assistant, who relayed that although the doctor doublted lisinopril was the cause, he cautioned that I keep checking my BP. (I have been taking Verapamil for seven years to control it, but this new doctor wanted the BP even lower, so he put me on lisinopril in addition.)
I stayed off it for ten days and the numbing of the hands and feet vanished. But to verify that it is the lisinopril, I took one pill two days ago and woke up with strong tinkling in my right hand and lesser amount in my left hand.
Even today, as I am writing this, I still experience tinkling or numbness in both hands.
