A 58-year-old woman comes to visit her GP with her husband because she is concerned about her memory. She tells you that both her father and grandfather had frontotemporal dementia, and she is worried that she is developing it too. Her husband mentions that she sometimes has difficulty finding the right word in a conversation and has started saying sexually inappropriate things in front of family and friends. You suspect that her suspicions are correct given her family history, but you want to do some blood tests to rule out other differentials. Which THREE of the following tests should you do? Select THREE options only.
