Hey @NotHappyJan,
Same chemo as you but every three weeks.. I managed to work most of the way through (I only work part time though).

I also refused that Pegfilgrastim injection after the first one so didn't have those side effects to deal with. It just depends how you go as to whether you'll be up to work or not.
I just played games on my phone/watched movies. I didn't bother with the port so I was hooked up all over the place and with the cold cap I was wrapped up in warm blankets which made crosswords or the like a bit difficult. So was eating lunch I might add.
Hope all goes well.
