I am so sorry to read this. I can only speak from my own experience. My parents dog developed lymphoma and went from appearing totally well to being PTS in a week. Steroids helped and gave us hope for 48 hours but as they wore off his condition worsened and we had to make the decision to let him go. Our vet said that by the time the dog showed symptoms - raised temp, nasal congestion etc - it was generally too late for chemo.
You need to talk to the vet obviously but that was our experience.
