You could test for serum tryptophan but I don't see that as being very helpful. An easier cheaper more accurate way to test the hypothesis is to buy some tryptophan and see what happens. I think the lowest dose I've seen on the market is 500mg. Many are 1000mg. If it were me I would probably take half a capsule at first and feel it out from there.
