The flouride in your toothpaste is not strong enough and it is not the flouride you want to use to try and save your life. The expense and potentially deadly consequence of your decision doesn't make sense. Also, you should check with your cancer treatment center to see if they have a family practice clinic with ACE (After Cancer Experience) or similar certified physicians. They adjust lifetime screenings, as an example, for younger people that have gone through toxic treatments like we do.
