Low blood pressure advice sought

Another day, another symptom! Ive always had low blood pressure which is apparently such a great thing. But I've just nearly blacked out twice after bending over. Have just upped levo (two days in) from 50 to 75 mcg. Have also just drunk a pint of water to try and help things but I'm still dizzy when standing. Any advice? I'm trying g to do camping packing but have had to stop 🙄

Are you taking same brand of Levothyroxine as before?

Can take a few weeks for things to settle as dose is increased. Try to take it easy
