creatine/NO and sore throats?....

[HuskerFan1]

i just started back on NO and creatine this week and yesterday my throat started getting a little sore, not a sickness sore throat more of a little tingly thing, it didnt hurt to swallow (dont me making any stupid jokes) but it just pisses me off....i didnt sleep well at all last night...i wanna say its from the creatine....

anyone else get this once you start loading creatine back into your system?

I jumped back n creatine a few weeks ago myself and experienced a slight sore throat and stomach aches/cramps also. Figured the throat was possibly too much smoking when drinking or just a seasonal thing with the weather change. Been drinking a gallon of water per day so it can't be that.

The seasonal sinus stuff seems to be going around right now, so it could be that.

I like the orange flavor and usually sip it instead pounding it.

You may already know this, but you don't need to load creatine. I've stopped and started creatine dozens of times (and used to load back when we were sold that bill of goods), but never got a sore or scratchy throat from it.

I've only used creatine a few times in the past and it was a long time ago, but anyway, anyone here using this shit experience bloat at the onset of use and if so, how long does that last for?

When I use creatine, I just get the runs. Never tried NO
