@mattyb

check that homocysteine

it is worthless to check blood for aminos, needs urine also. looks like huge catabolism here, or he was taking something. amino acids with betaine may be

Neat? Yes pfs.

@gbolduev i just taking Effexor, testosterone.

No betaine, no amino

Sorry, wasn't trying to be flippant. Just the first time I've seen a blood amino test on here. The test is neat.

What are your main symptoms? Really hard to interpret this knowing that you were taking testosterone during this.

Fatigue, dépression, anxiety, low libido

There's some sort of dysfunction you have man. The depression and anxiety to that degree where you're in need of an antidepressant (like I once was)- makes me believe there is something stressing your body out incredibly. It could be toxicities, pathogens, heavy metals- could many things. I would honestly start looking down the pathogen/Lyme route first if I were you in this situation along with hair mineral testing.

Have you ever had a blood test showing ammonia? This was extremely high for me when I had unbearable depression, anxiety, and fatigue. Might be something to look at.

YEs i just sent a blood sample for lyme today.

No I haven’t tested ammonia, in fact can it be reduced?
