Hello
Thank You for contacting HCM.

Your body seems to be allergic to drink (creatine) so causing these symptoms. I would recommend you to change your pre-workout drink and then observe. If no symptom appears then it was the drink IF still problem occurs then further workup can be done.

Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow
up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us.
Wishing you good health.
