Well thankyou for the detailed reply. If you don't mind, what type of creatine/supplements were you taking? Were you taking prohormones? Personaly I think those things are the devil. They are made of chemicals that don't have the research of real roids and are less effective. I'm not condoning roids by the way.
hey man, to answer your question I was using Green magnitude, Ive used size on, creapure, cee......too many to count.
I have used a few prhormones, extreme tren , which i hear although non methyl is tough on kidneys, ive used epistane, and 9 days once of M1T ( now that is the devil).
needless to say my bloodwork was somewhat close to my last cycle, so that might have skewed my results...
The clinic doctor ( my fam.doc is in southern Ontario) didnt seem overly concerned....he asked if i used creatine....then told me never to use it again, he used to use it and in his opinion we all just think its soooo safe because of the supplement companies. He told me hes seeing more and more problems with young guys and their Kidneys....he was big guy too, so obviously he exercises.
So I have to get some more tests obviously, and get all the creatine out of my system, I think my creatinine levels were over 145 when normal is 50-115, a clear indicator of renal dysfunction.
Its an easy blood test, and again my case might be isolated....pretty upset though I wake up with a horrible pinch on my right and left backside that just wont go away, Im young too, doesnt seem fair...but noone ever told me life was fair so what can i do....suck it up and take it...and if I die cause of it then Im one of 67,000 in morth america who die each year from it....pretty gross to think of that.
At least If I need a transplant I know theres people who would step up...but then the thought of taking that from someone...shortening their life so mine can go on....not too sure i could ask that of someone....my sweet girl says I can have both of heres cause she cant live without me....so sick to hear that, and the truth is I would never take even one from her, how selfish would that be.
again sorry for the rant, not everyone will get screwed like me, and not everyone will agree with the creatine part of this....Ive heard "its safe" more than anyone...thats y I took it.
talk to you guys soon...just sitting here trying to research as much as I can about all this stuff, at least ill be informed about whats killing me, maybe that will help me fight it.
