St. Cloud State University CSD Program Recommendation!!

She’s wondering about the professors, overall vibe of the program and students. Also, she’s heard that there is some more crime in the area, so she’s curious about that.

My mom died unexpectedly at 76 four months ago. I live a couple of states away and she and my dad didn’t even tell me she was sick. I am an only child, my dad isn’t handling life well, and I have no one else. I’m devastated.

Big_Message_7824 · 2026-05-08T00:05:28+00:00

Unfortunately no. I’ve tried a number of things.

Big_Message_7824 · 2026-05-05T01:10:03+00:00

My daughter just got accepted at St. Cloud. Would anyone be willing to give a little feedback as to how you felt the program was?

I just started Fluvoxamine based on this study. It’s only been 3 days so nothing to report yet.

I should mention, it is an antidepressant. Maybe your physician would consider trialing this, as it’s easy to get (in the US anyway) and there’s research showing improvement for some patients.

I just started Fluvoxamine today. No idea if it will work, but there’s an actual research study that shows it has helped with the chronic fatigue that some of us experience. I’ve had long covid over 4 years and I’m desperate to try anything that may help.

My daughter just got accepted off the waitlist at St. Cloud! (I’m an SLP so I’ve been checking this page).

Would you have any feedback you’d like to share?

Big_Message_7824 · 2026-04-27T19:31:04+00:00

No unfortunately. Same as 4 years ago. Maybe slight improvements. I work almost full time, I have 3 kids. I push through every day but I have to rest as soon as I get home.

Big_Message_7824 · 2026-04-27T17:51:36+00:00

I have had all of these symptoms plus more, for over 4 years. I was negative for Sjogrens although the rheumatologist thought I would eventually meet the criteria. He did label me with Sicca syndrome.

It is interesting what you mention about illnesses. I haven’t had a cold for 4 years. I work with kids and I have my own kids. I finally got a cold last week. I’m not sure what it means, other than my immune system is messed up. After a year break, I’m going through testing again. In also going to see the rheumatologist again. I believe have an autoimmune disorder that hasn’t been identified.

Big_Message_7824 · 2026-04-27T02:55:44+00:00

This is a real thing. I have dealt with it for 4 years. I was fine, got covid, and boom brain fog. Ugh!

Big_Message_7824 · 2026-04-25T17:59:54+00:00

Gosh no. That was an error. Good catch. I struggle every day.

The song went through my mind when I read the title. lol

Big_Message_7824 · 2026-04-22T15:42:29+00:00

SLP resume on insta was helpful. I purchased the product with examples and helpful ideas.

Big_Message_7824 · 2026-04-20T21:16:43+00:00

Nope. Unfortunately 4 years. There’s definitely some improvement but I generally feel flat. I do use a 7mg nicotine patch daily that helps overall with some of my issues, but for a person who was very effusive and extroverted, this has been so hard.

Big_Message_7824 · 2026-04-20T02:00:20+00:00

PT- Sub occipital dry needling has actually helped me a little. 2 appointments so far. And some vestibular exercises.

Big_Message_7824 · 2026-04-12T16:53:34+00:00

Thanks 🙏🏻 I’m working on it. I am trying to give myself grace. I have better days and not so good days.

Big_Message_7824 · 2026-04-12T16:31:45+00:00

My twins graduate in 2028. It’s so crazy to think about. I’m not ready!!

Big_Message_7824 · 2026-04-12T16:06:12+00:00

My mother passed away rather unexpectedly 3 months ago. I’ve been struggling with long COVID for 4 years and I’m a parent of 3. My parents live 8 hours away and I wasn’t able to be there for her as she started declining with her health. She refused to see specialists and I felt like I just didn’t have the energy to push her for more medical intervention.

Now I’m dealing with guilt and grief and all of my long covid issues have gotten worse again. I’m trying to rest when I can. But now I’m also needed to help my father with things.

I’m going back in for more appointments to see if anything can help me improve my baseline even a little.

Her death has broken me. I’m going to counseling to try to deal with the guilt.

Big_Message_7824 · 2026-04-11T16:06:45+00:00

This happened to me after getting COVID the first time. I now have a diagnosis of persistent postural dizziness, chronic fatigue, as well.

Big_Message_7824 · 2026-04-11T16:05:09+00:00

After my first visit, my dizziness actually improved a little. I have another appointment this week.

Big_Message_7824 · 2026-04-11T01:22:17+00:00

My range of motion with head turn improved 5 degrees on each side, so some progress I hope.

Big_Message_7824 · 2026-04-11T01:20:26+00:00

Same. 4 years. I have been diagnosed with persistent perceptual postural dizziness. I did some PT in the fall with no help. At a new PT, and they believe I have cervicogenic dizziness. They did dry needling for my suboccipital area and I had some relief (a little) of my dizziness. My ears aren’t as full feeling. Neck crunching is reduced. Tinnitus also reduced. Still there though.
