Inconsistent High Blood Pressure Medication

I used to have medical aid and was prescribed Co-Diovan 80 plus Twynsta 40mg. But then I got retrenched and had to receive other medication since the State does not keep these kind of medication. The State gives medication free of charge. I was prescribed a list of medication back since none were effective - my BP remained high. Most recently I got Atenolol 50mg plus Perindopril 4 plus Adco-Retic 2.5mg for water retention. My blood pressure remained non-consistent so I decided to rather go back to the Co-Diovan/Twynsta combination again. I must say that these medications are really expensive but since it is my health, I purchased them out of my own pocket. I have been using the Co-Diovan combination for the past 3 days but have noticed that my blood pressure ranges between 167/93 to 149/89. Why is this? I have used this medication in the past and they worked quit fine - my blood pressure ranged between 120/80 to 134/89 in the past. But now they're not having the same effect on my body. Can someone please help? I'm at total loss here... going back to the State hospital really won't help much. State Doctors don't have time for their patients like at a private hospital or clinic and besides they'll just give me another combination of pills that will be useless.
