I had 3 Cisplatin doses and as with you alot of hydradion each time. I went back to work each day after Chemo and felt fine (it was tax season). Just drink alot of water. As far as loosing hair - mine thinned out but it was not noticable to anyone but those who knew and were looking for the thinning.
