I’m currently on carboplatin with vinoralbine. 
no hair loss as such but a bit of thinning which I’m told is the norm for this chemotherapy. 
the tiredness is my biggest problem. My nurse explained that it must be doing its job if I’m feeling the way I do so I hold on to that and try to keep positive. I’m a 58 yr old female usually quite energetic but this has been an eye opener. Everyone reacts differently to their chemo. Staying positive is half the battle. 
I wish you well with your treatment. Rest plenty and eat as  well as you can and take one day at a time. If you have concerns always speak to the team treating you. Best wishes x
