Which of the following conditions would be expected with a client with an elevated thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) level with a decreased Triiodothyronine (T3) and Thyroxine (T4) level?

Choice A rationale

The most common first sign of breast cancer is a new lump or mass in the breast. However, not all lumps are cancerous, and some may be benign or non-cancerous19.

Chest pain is not typically associated with breast cancer. While it can occur in some cases, it is not usually the first clinical sign19.
