Those of the chemo or those of the radiation? Radiation effects last much longer and have most likely some permanent consequences.
I can not comment on the large dosage, I had the weakly treatment and only 2 at that before we had to switch carboplatin. Up to that point the effect of cisplatin were not severe at all.
