Thyroiditis is slightly peculiar in its behavior because depending on the stage of the disease patient may be hyperthyroid (for 4 to 6 weeks) , hyperthyroid (for 4 to 6 months) and subsequently become euthyroid.
In initial stages thyroid is not producing hormones but the stored hormones are released in excessive amount as the gland is damaged,
In next stage all the stores are depleted and thyroid is not producing new hormones. So patient is hyperthyroid.
In the recovery phase thyroid slowly starts becoming normal.
Accordingly the levels of thyroid hormones vary according to stage of the disease.

Thyrioditis is possible with normal values of thyroid hormones.
You need to do thyroid antibodies.
Symptoms may be due to sub clinical hypothyroidism.
