Each person reacts differently, so there is no telling, but the chances of going hyper are slim on that dose with your labs. If you notice "hyper" symptoms immediately after the dose increase, then they probably aren't hyper symptoms.
Chances are if you notice hyper symptomsthen they are from adrenal fatigue flaring up due to the stress of the dose increase rather than thyroid hormones.
It might ease your dose transitions if you split your dose, taking half in the morning and half in the afternoon.
