Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of [[de Quervain's thyroiditis]] usually include increased [[Thyroid-stimulating hormone|thyroid stimulating hormone]], decreased [[free T3]] and [[free T4]], and [[thyroid peroxidase|anti-thyroid peroxidase antibodies]].
Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of de Quervain's thyroiditis usually include increased ESR, free T3 and free T4 and decreased thyroid stimulating hormone. Anti-[[thyroid peroxidase]] antibody is usually low or absent.
