I need help trying to figure out what’s wrong with me

@KM88 barely able to walk sound like severe defiency,
Salt dont necessary increase digestion and can reduce digestion and increase foods/liquid reflux if you eat to much.
With the few elements you mentionned, and also initially triggered by alcohol, you should try ripe fruits and good quality dattes possibly, its pro movement/ease of movement and joints health. If this doesnt improve, with your current diet likely being muscle meat, you could be low in molydenum, selenium, manganese, so i suggest you experiment with foods high in these minerals or with supps if you are someone that do take supps. And i suggest you dont eat to much muscle meat per day.

My respiraolgost ordered the serotonin. I’m suppose to see an endo but hasn’t happened. But it keeps coming back elevated in the blood.
How did you arrive at a respiratory? You didn't say anything about recent pulmonary issues, or it's not clear.
Did you take the most regularly recommended covid therapeutic, most commonly referred to as a vaccine?
And what else was going on in 2018? What do you do for a living, is it hard? (Be vague.)

What makes you think I have this defieincy? Can it be checked with that standard 23&me type of data ?

I haven’t been able to work since 2018. At the time I was working in a hardware store. The lighting department. I do recall things getting worse after I was drinking a liter of whole milk a day. A had to quit my job during this time.
. I have very difficult time moving around much. The pulmonary issues began after Fludrocortisone in 2023. It’s been like 24/7 wheezing on exhale since like my tissues on my lungs swelled up and it’s never returned to normal. It’s brutal. They cannot find a cause. The serotonin shouldn’t be causing this breathing issue according to them. Yes I was vaccinated twice. Never will I have another.

An acute tryptophan diet would be an interesting experiment for a day or two (if you have not already tried this). Collagen or gelatin powder as your only protein source. Fruits, maybe potatoes, coconut oil to fill out calories. You can dramatically lower serotonin this way, especially in the brain. https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.94.10.5308. Maybe even a few hours would be enough for a quick check.
If you have already tried this I would be curious what resulted, how you felt, etc.

*"Acute tryptophan depletion diet...."

@Homo_normalis Great results from this. 80g gelatin a day with an otherwise low protein diet and bromocriptine w/ caffeine is the most dopaminergic I ever felt.

I haven’t tried this but I will add it to my list.
I often wonder since I don’t produce any stomach acid really that I’m actually protein defieicnt. My urine is always frothy but it never comes back as an issue in the urine tests that check for protein

@KM88 you said you eat meat and carbs, can you explicit, what carbs?

Blood tests aren’t the most accurate diagnostic for thyroid function so I’m not surprised your t3 looks normal. Mine always comes back within range, even when my thyroid was suppressed. May I ask what your thyroid source was, what your thyroid stats (temp & pulse rate upon waking in the morning, and even better if you tracked them right before and roughly 30 minutes after eating) and dosing schedule were, how long you supplemented for and what your diet (food & caloric intake) was at the time?
