Afraser and Blossum1961 have very good advice.
I had everything ready also. Everyone is different, but I had no severe side effects.
I did need Coloxyl for constipation..
Nexium for reflux.
I had no nausea, I had anti-nausea drugs and never needed them.
I used the Cold Cap with very good success, I had only mild hair thinning. Ask me more if you want.
People I did not know, could tell that I was on Chemo.
It doesn't work for everyone, but you would know between your 2nd and 3rd Chemo if it is working for you. Think about giving it a try.
I also mention Income Protection here. You may want to make a claim, if you have a policy (perhaps within your superannuation) If you want to do this get the forms and put them in soon.
All the best with your treatments, I hope it goes as well as possible.
