Did you have your blood work for the copper and zinc and ceruloplasmin? If you don't know your levels you could run into trouble Otherwise looks like a decent list to me
 
No not for copper zinc and ceruoplasm I am going to my gp on Monday what should I ask for?
 
Those 3. If you are only taking zinc you run the risk of becoming copper deficient. The ceruloplasmin will allow you to calculate your free copper which is sometimes high in ALS according to a small group that test on alstdi. Then it is probably ok to take zinc without copper My neuro wants periodic checks of zinc copper kidney liver and complete blood count periodically while on zinc/ copper. If you have not had it already maybe ask for uric acid too. If it is normal you can try to bump it up a bit.
