I dont think what you are feeling has anything to do with creatine. I have never read any studies that report a side effect like yours. You are more then likely getting sick, february is the month where the most people suffer from the flu.
yea u prob. right and this always happens to me when i start to take creatine and i stop takin it but i think im gonna ride this one out and jus drink a lot of water and tough it out
Get some orange juice to combat the sickness, it helps in the early stages.
What kind of creatine? Regular mono makes me bloat and gives me the ****s. But it shouldnt give you headaches.
Creatine makes me feel sick if I take it on an empty stomach. I use 2 scoops (powder) mixed with about 24 ounces of water. Try mixing with more water or drinking more water. I stay very hydrated and feel fine on creatine all other times. It makes me urinate a lot after drinking though. Good luck.
He's exactly right. I doubt your side effects are stemming from creatine. You're more than likely getting sick or have a virus of some sort. Good luckQuote:

some times the regualr creatine can give you ill side effects these are less common with micronised creatine and lots of water.
sounds like dehydration, in part due to excess creatnine. You may want to try a more "efficient" creatine. CEE is quite effective with minimal bloating and creatinine conversion (the place where this is most an issue is in the gut- where monohydrate is extensively converted to creatinine in many people)
just drink a ****! load of water!!!
How many grams of creatine are in the two scoops? 5grams pre or post workout is all you need and it sounds like you are dehydrated
