Q: it kind of sounds like a hassle to take it. it sounds like in order not to end up with kidney stones or hydration problems it to constabtly be drinking down water. what if you dont have the time to be constantly drinking?nik named mom. i tried searching it. there are no medical studies that have been done or actualy any solid factual information on creatine side effects other than dehydration.

A: Creatine is a lot more dangerous than people will have you believe. My sister and her husband are body builders, well, she WAS. She now has a condition called Psuedo Tumor Cerebri. This is caused by creatine and affects men more often than women. PTC causes your body to make too much spinal fluid. When you have too much fluid, there isn’t anyplace for it to go, so it creates a pocket tumor of fluid in your brain. It’s called a Psuedo Tumor because they only have to insert a ten inch long needle into her spine with a drain tube about once a month to relieve the pressure so she won’t be paralyzed. My sister now suffers from debilitating migranes and has gone from a 70 hour a week worker, and working out at the gym or at home every spare minute to drooling, crying and laying in bed in insufferable pain begging us to make it stop. Her only relief comes after the blindness and the spinal tap to dump the excess fluid. She gets one day of no pain, and two of some then she’s right back to screaming. The doctor diagnosed her and said it came from her diet. He said that creatine was definitely a factor. Creatine DOES NOT have this effect on everyone, but is it worth the risk?Check some medical sites to see for yourself that what I am saying is true. You can start at webmd.com and look up psuedo tumor cerebri first. Then start looking at the physicians desk reference for creatine and the real side effects.

Q: I am considering taking creatine but am not sure what will happen to my body when I stop some day in the future. Does it get flabby? Does the muscle turn to fat? What happens?

A: I have a feeling you dont quite understand what creatine actually does?? Creatine is not an anobolic aid, instead it helps resynthesis ATP (muscle energy) so you can lift heavier or for longer.While taking creatine it is recommended to cycle on and off. This is so your body doesnt get used to the creatine. When your on it you’ll notice a gain in water in your muscles. When your off it, it will dissappear.
