Carnitine Transporter Deficiency

drkcrystl4@aol.com

We were told a few days ago that our DS may have Carnitine Transporter Deficiency after one of the screens that was performed at the hospital.  We don't know a whole lot about it yet and are having his blood drawn today to confirm the diagnosis.  I was curious to know if anyone out there has heard of this or has a child with it and what you could tell me.  Or if there is anyone who was told their child had this after the screen at the hospital and then found out it was a false positive after their blood was tested again after being discharged from the hospital.
