From what she said (something about creatine being a metabolite of some process), I honestly feel like she was confusing creatine and creatinine

I think a lot of people still associate those two, because if I remember correctly high levels of creatinine = kidney issues under normal circumstances. But hey, I'm not a doctor...

Also I want to give a shout-out to high pulls, my favorite pulling motion. I'm about as explosive as a box of wet sand, and these things have helped that tremendously. Also, good for traps. Highly suggested.

Fair warning: Creatine supplements cause elevated creatinine levels in blood-work. This doesn't mean anything if you're healthy, your kidneys will just clear it along with everything else.

However, if your doctors are at all worried about your kidneys they'll be keeping an eye on your creatinine levels because it's part of how they measure kidney function and they'll think the elevated creatinine is a sign that your kidneys are failing. It may take repeated tests and maybe collecting your urine in a jug for 24 hours to convince them otherwise.

Also try to get a provider who deals with sports medicine, and always feel free to shop around.

I don't even have elevated creatinine, my bloodwork last year had very slightly elevated alkaline phosphatase and AST, and decently elevated triglycerides. The year before everything was completely perfect. I think these differences are entirely explained by the fact that the perfect bloodwork was when I was at my lowest weight in years and living with a vegetarian, while the worse bloodwork was during a pretty fast semi-intentional bulk

Creatine accelerates balding and isn't nearly as popular as it was ~5 years ago when it was the number one cheap miracle lifting powder you HAD to be taking (see also: fish oil).

Get your diet 100% before you worry about any sups since they all suck.
