Connection Refused Issues

Just started having issues where my website is unable to pull data from my API hosted on digital ocean. We use cloudflare to proxy the server but keep getting these errors:

Ngix server error logs:

2024/07/04 23:59:57 [error] 15618#15618: *7 connect() failed (111: Connection refused) while connecting to upstream, client: 172.11.111.111, server: api.website.com, request: "GET /findata/latestPrices HTTP/1.1", upstream: "http://127.0.0.1:3355/latestPrices", host: "api.website.com", referrer: "https://plex.website.com/"

IP and Website changed for privacy

Here is the current Nginx Setup:

server {
  server_name api.website.com;
  listen 80;
  listen [::]:80;

  location ^~ /values {
    rewrite ^/values/(.*)$ /$1 break;
    proxy_pass http://localhost:5001/;
  }

  location ^~ /lights {
    rewrite ^/lights/(.*)$ /$1 break;
    proxy_pass http://localhost:8008/;
  }

  location ^~ /plex {
    rewrite ^/plex/(.*)$ /$1 break;
    proxy_pass http://localhost:3007/;
  }

  location ^~ /number {
    rewrite ^/number/(.*)$ /$1 break;
    proxy_pass http://localhost:3009/;
  }

  location ^~ /findata {
    rewrite ^/findata/(.*)$ /$1 break;
    proxy_pass http://localhost:3355/;
  }

  location /ws/ {
    proxy_pass http://localhost:3355/ws;
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
    proxy_read_timeout 86400;
  }
}

Any insight or ideas?
