Default Carnitine Deficiency and polyneuropathy

I have been posting here recently and went to a major university for a 2nd opinion with a neurologist. (My neurologist told me he would order physical therapy to help me without even doing a complete evaluation). Anyway, the doctor at the university did a complete evaluation in 1 visit-emg,blood work, skin biopsy and ordered mri neurography. He e-mailed me today telling me my carnitine level was low and to start supplements. I will return for a visit after the mri neurography in about 1-2 weeks. Has anyone here ever had this deficiency and if so, did you improve with taking carnitine? I know things will probably not be that simple but the symptoms I have fit. Muscle pain, weakness, neuropathy etc. Thanks for reading.
