    will my kidneys be damaged

    for the first 2 days of the loading dose the instructions said to use 1 and a half table spoons 4 times a day well i was only taking it 2 or 3 times a day but anyways instead of using teaspoons i just found out that i was using the wrong spoon! i was using table spoons wich i didnt know so i was using 1 and a half table spoons per dose! will my kidneys be damaged? i just found out today that the teaspoon was the long skinny one.

    You will be fine.....I owuldn't even bother loading it just stick with 5grams before and 5 grams after workout and you'll be good to go. If you're that worried about it, just drink a butt load of water and cranberry juice for a couple of weeks.

    OOOOh shit, you done it now, your doomed man, doomed, death by creatine overdose, I can just read the headlines in the paper now, "BOY MISTAKES TABLESPOON FOR TEASPOON"!!!!!! No just kidding man, I know an owner of a Max Muscle store, he has a friend that is kind of a lab rat for him, the guy took 40 grams of creatine a day for almost 3 months, besides a bad case of gas and the runs, he had no problems, so far, relax man, I am sure your fine.

    seriously its in ur head. u can take a shit load of creatine, just not for a very long time IMO. they reccomend low doses on the labels to be extra safe to consumers, you quite possibly got a better dosage. Brain1200 is a funny guy.

    ""OOOOh shit, you done it now, your doomed man, doomed, death by creatine overdose, I can just read the headlines in the paper now, "BOY MISTAKES TABLESPOON FOR TEASPOON"!!!!!!""-i blew protein out of my nose

    im not going to say creatine is harmless as water, but i was taking up to 30g/day when i was in high school (i know only a waste now, but had the more is better mentality)...never had any problems...but i knew guys that took less than 10g that got kidney stones...the difference, i drink at least if not double a gallon or water/day...in building muscle diet is much, much more important than anything you take...btw, read a little and stop making ignorant posts (not talking about this one, your others)...
