Well there are certain tests in which we can confirm serotonin and dopamine level in brain but unfortunately these tests are not available for routine clinical practice. We check their metabolites in urine and do MRS scan to find it's value in special Location of brain. What you asked these illness are many times associated with generalized anxiey. And anxiety disorder is well know due to serotonin imbalances. So may be that the reason your physician has explained you that.
