First off sorry that you are now a member of our "society" but believe me you have found THE BEST source of information and help to get you through this.
One thing I'm curious about your Tx when you say you will be given Cisplatin 6 times spread out every 3 weeks. You may want to confirm that as most of us either got 1 Tx a week for 6 weeks or 3 Tx's over the 7 weeks of rad.
