What Treatment Is Suggested For Levothyroxine ?

My husband has been diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis. He has been on Levothyroxine since 12/24/13. Long story short, the past couple of days he has been waking up to nauseating hot flashes. Is that the thyroid going back and forth between hyper and hypo? Should he take his thyroid at a different time? Just curious.
