I just heard that you are limited to 2 courses retaken and no more than 2 retakes per course for MD schools. I can't find this written anywhere though. Has anyone else heard this and is there any truth to this?

I've never heard this. We just keep averaging your gpa. It may raise eyebrows to have more than than one retake, though.
