Context: today is day 8 of sobriety after being a very heavy drinker with small breaks on rare occasions for years. Half a fifth to a whole fifth of vodka a day. I’ve been taking 5 grams of creatine since day 1 of sobriety and yesterday evening on day 7 I had a nasty migraine/tension headache and it’s the next day and it hasn’t gone away. I may have overdone it on my workout yesterday lifting much more heavier than usual and understand that could be a factor.

I have never had a migraine lasting this long. Could it be the creatine in such an early phase of recovery? Has anyone had bad reactions to creatine? I’ve taken creatine in the past, had no problems, but I waited two weeks till I started.
