Guest guest Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 Hi Lidia, I was wondering if you could tell me a little more about Carnitor? My son just had a muscle biopsy to test for mito. We did a lot of bloodwork which always came back showing mito issues, but was not clear or conclusive. We had done several Acyl Carnitine blood profiles that came back showing disorder in that system. I am expecting if they find mito issues in the muscle, that he will most likely be put on Carnitor. Please feel free to write me off list at lauc174@.... I am interested in any experience in this area.
