Do you still drink water when you skip creatine? Being dehydrated causes headaches, so it may be the extra water intake that's helping and not the creatine.
replyyes, i always drink plenty of water throughout day and night too, infact when i get stuck on a problem i go for a walk and drink water.
replySo drinking water part is consistent with or without creatine. I do know the creatine takes a while to build up, so i don't know why it works but it does.

reply>Headache pain often appears along with other signs and symptoms of dehydration, including darker-than-usual pee, dry mouth and fatigue
none of these symptoms are true for me.
"often" and "always" are two different words that mean two different things
replyYes, but hydration isn’t really a problem for me. I’m a bit of a water purification nerd, I collect water from a natural waterfall, run it through multiple stages of purification, and then start convincing myself it has some magical properties. I don’t drink soda or caffeine, I mostly just drink water.
replyI do the same thing with pickle juice. Works for me.
replyDo you take monohydrate or HCL?
replyMonihydrate causes me terrible GI issues and insomnia. I’ve found HCL to me much easier on my body.
replyIt's just so annoyingly sour but it dissolves very well so you can drink it like shot of vodka. And the body absorbs it so much faster
replymost common one, monohydrate.
