3. A 54-year-old woman arrives at the ATU Hospital Emergency Department with the chief complaint of chest pain unrelieved by nitroglycerin. She is given a chewable aspirin, her blood pressure and ECG are recorded, and a blood sample was taken for lab analysis. During the taking of her medical history she complains of recent bouts of heat intolerance, nervousness, chest palpitations, and weight loss (despite having an increased appetite). Her observed vital signs are: Blood Pressure of 170/90 mm Hg; Pulse 120/min, Temperature 37.4C. Her ECG appears normal, other than a sinus tachycardia, with no signs of ST segment changes. You suspect that her symptoms may be caused by hyperthyroidism, and request blood tests be performed. Her lab values indicate the presence of a positive titer for thyroid-stimulating immunoglobin (TSI). Which sets of results would confirm your diagnosis of Grave's disease?
