@kpatrick1111 Thanks for Posting This I'm a Lifter as Well.
I had to stop Taking Creatine because doctor said it was effecting my Creatinine levels
Which I stopped and slowly about a couple months
My Creatinine levels went back to normal
And I had to go to doctor 6 months later
And they checked me again and said my Creatinine levels or gfr thing I don't know if I'm spelling it right
were at 70 and I'm 30 years old
And she said healthy people my age is not supposed to be at 100
It's normal if I was in my 50s
But she said it's not normal
Got referred to a nephrologist have to call Monday kinda Anxious to confirm my appointment
I have Agoraphobia and Social Anxiety
But I have to call for my health sake
And I got referred a dietician
Because I been eating near 200 grams of protein plus BCAAs I take
Plus the Beta Alanine and pre workout supplements I take
I like creatine had to stop due to my doctor telling me to
But hopefully my kidneys can get back to normal
Because I been drinking a lot of water more than a gallon a day
Hopefully I have 18 and a half inch Arms
I been trying to grow them to 19 inch Arms and possibly 20 inches arms is my goal
As a natural Lifter
Thanks OP for posting this
Because I have Agoraphobia and Social Anxiety really bad I was scared to ask this question
Thanks for posting this
Working Out helps my Anxiety and Agoraphobia
And I get a temporary reduce in my anxiety
Lasts a hour
But really helps better than my medicine
And it also helps physically because I was prediabetic and I'm trying to reduce that
And I really love working out and building my body
Which I'm not competing professionally
Hopefully one day I could amateur or professionally
If I can get over my anxiety
but if you are building muscle you technically are building the body
Thanks op for the post
Excuse my grammar and such
