I have maybe about 4 weeks ago I started self treating with armour felt a bit better!!! A few things since happened and decided to back onto levo. The endo has surprised me and said he will perscribe me some t3 aslongy next few test come back positive. So I'm back on levo. I went from 75mcgs levo to 1/4 grain armour and every week upped the dose going up to 1 grain in the end felt a bit funny and went back to the start upping again to 3/4's then onto 50mcgs levo I've been on the levo 5 days. When do you think it will be safe to go back upto 75mcg? Couldn't really ask the endo as he warned me to stay away from armour :/ thanks for any advice xx

I think you would be fine to increase now as you were previously on this dose and your body was used to it. You know that you were fine on that dose. The gradual increase is usually when you have not had it before and don't know what dose you will need. If you feel you will be best on 75mcg then that is probably what you should do.
