The nurse should assess the client with an elevated level of thyroid hormone for evidence of emotional lability, insomnia, and restlessness. Elevated levels of thyroid hormone indicate a diagnosis of hyperthyroidism or Grave's disease, which is also associated with the symptoms of irritability, anxiety, and weight loss.
