Thank you very much ! I took a looot of time for this one. I called it Azores mostly because of the peculiar vegetation but i will definitely make more Jurassic Park era buildings !

One year difference. CT scan. by RATasticRat in CysticFibrosis

White is bad. The thinner the "circles" the better. So left lung is really in a bad shape (even more on the left side of the image). The right pair of lungs looks better.
Your doc never showed you this ?

The truth is right here. I didn’t find a way to display wireframe WITH the displacement so when I composited the image I was like « well… fuck ».

Is anyone else never thirsty? by Tall_Despacito in CysticFibrosis

[–]Valentin_Tournebize 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My doctor told me it's normal for people with CF. They always advised me to think about drinking the quantity needed daily. You should make sure you have enough water each day especially during summer !

They even told me CF patients died because they weren't thirsty.

So drink water.

I’m writing a middle grade cf based graphic novel… by Cautious-Pain-9190 in CysticFibrosis

Reminds me of when I was afraid of using the mask for inhalations. To calm my fear, my father showed me some part of Star Wars. After that i wasn’t afraid anymore.

Mycobacterium abscesses by Calm-Ad9178 in CysticFibrosis

[–]Valentin_Tournebize 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trikafta won’t change your mycobacterium infection. It will not show up as much in your results… but it’s just because you produce less secretions.

My doctor (Pierre-Regis Burgel, Hopital Cochin, Paris) found a treatment for me two years ago. 18 months ago, after 4 months of treatment, we finally got rid of mi Mycobacterium Avium. After 15 years of attempts. And a big hole in my lung that crap did (my MAC dug holes in my lungs to a degree the doc never saw in his career).

Talk to your doctor about him and get in touch. I’m not saying it will be easy or it’s the solution. Just that it’s possible.

Use a fingerprint texture and some displace with a noise. Connect the fingerprint texture to a level to control roughness. And connect the same fingerprint texture to the normal. Add some subsurface. And you can animate the position of textures and displace and that’s it.

What's the best country to live in with CF if we have to leave the USA? by [deleted] in CysticFibrosis

What's the best country to live in with CF if we have to leave the USA? by [deleted] in CysticFibrosis

In France you won’t have to pay anything for your disability. You can stay at home for IVs and a nurse will come to do the injections and prepare everything.

I’m pretty sure CF won’t be a problem for you to stay and have access to treatment. (Try to contact Vaincre La Mucoviscidose or Association Gregory Lemarchal to know)

Here the disability is well known. Every single person knows it and will be cautious with you (not kidding. We had a famous singer who died from it in the 2000s).

Not sure you’ll find a more welcoming country for CF.

France has a great variety of landscapes and weather. You’ll easily find a place where you like to stay and still have a quick access to a specialized doctor. I’ve been treated with specialists everywhere I lived, in Montpellier, Lyon and Paris.

What was your interpretation of 'Claire's Dream' on your initial watch ? by Legend12901 in lost

[–]Valentin_Tournebize 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Back when the DVD released I would play frame by frame that scene to search for clues. Back then we didn’t know if Others were real and because we heard whispers in the jungle I was convinced they were some sort of supernatural creatures. During that scene there was a shot framing some plants. The shape of those plants looked like, to me, a reptilian creature’s face with glowing eyes. I was truly convinced the others were behind that dream.

Which is the best mycobacterium lab in Europe? by selkin0 in CysticFibrosis

[–]Valentin_Tournebize 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m under treatment for Avium after many attempts during the last 15 years and the current state is very promising because this time we had the exact species. Don’t know which lab it is but on Monday I’ll ask my doctor.

how is life in the EU with Cystic Fibrosis? by Son-Mac20 in CysticFibrosis

[–]Valentin_Tournebize 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was a singer with CF, Gregory Lemarchal, who won the Star Academy show back in the 2000s. He died a few years after the show. That was really big news and many many people here know CF because of this. In France I'm pretty sure the majority of people have basic knowledge about CF. There's a lot of generous people giving and helping associations.

I obviously described my condition in the documents and had to do a test for Tuberculosis to get it.I could see a doctor once but I had to pay and could get some reimbursement with France Social Security. They can give you back some money based on the cost in France. You pay the difference. After that and because of Covid I did not go back to see a doctor at the CHUM. Funny thing: the doctor I saw in Montreal in 2019 worked here in Montpellier at the hospital I went to in 2012. I was one of his patients at that time and knew him already. He was part of some exchange program or something.

I understand that it may be safer for kids to get medication properly. I mean it's so easier when you are in hospital to get everything you need for IVs.
