My dog was diagnosed with lymphoma 5 months ago and has been receiving chemotherapy.?

She has been doing relatively well on the chemo with the vet, though during the past week or so has not had any interest in eating anything ... including meat and all of her other favorites. Naturally, her energy level is low as well and she seems to not have much interest in all of her favorite things. She is also vomiting throughout the day despite having medication from her vet to suppress nausea. She has little interest in drinking anything and is having fluids "forced" in her to try to keep her from dehydrating. Any ideas on how else to help her? The vet told me to continue trying to keep her hydrated and is hoping the appetite will come around. I appreciate any thoughts.
