i have been bodybuilding for 18yrs now and
I am 6'4" 260lbs 15% body fat. I have had
a full lft, b-hcg, etc to make sure
everything is normal. Everything came
back normal except my creatinine levels
the are 1.4 so the doctor told me to stop
all vitiams and test again in 4 weeks,
well that was friday and the result came
back at 1.35. I know the normal range is
0.6 to 1.2 but I believe that if you have
large amount of muscle it can cause your
creatinine levels to rise.....Is this true
because she wants me to go and see a
specialist which I cannot get into until
december....

hi, if you have been bodybuilding for some
time now you probably know this already
but if you take creatine, it excretes a
waste product which is creatinine. This
can cause you to have high levels or
already worsen bad levels that you have. I
havent heard anything about more muscle
mass causing higher creatinine levels
though. Gav
