P0344 - "Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Intermittent"
It could only be a glitch if you've received the code only once. Sometimes something as simple as an engine misfire could cause the the sensor to misinterpret a problem. As the camshaft normally has at least two sensors monitoring it, it's unusual that there would be only one sensor indicating a problem.
Firstly, try clearing the code... you can do this by using a code reader which can be purchased for your own use; or by taking your truck to a place like Advance Auto Parts and they'll do it for free. Just do not let people advise you that disconnecting the battery will clear it, often the only thing that does is deactivate the Check Engine light but the code will remain written in the computers RAM until cleared manually.
If the code comes back later after you've had it cleared, or appears multiple times, then there is most likely an issue with the sensor itself (as the code description implies) and will need to be replaced. These sensors are fairly inexpensive, but unless you have mechanical know-how, i'd suggest you let a trusted dealership take care of that. It shouldn't take more than an hour at most to replace it
