Hi Caity,
Sorry to about your ferrets lymphoma.
As for treatment options honestly after 6 months
on cortisone it is unlikely chemotherapy would help.
Adding cytoxan or CCNU with the cortisone is an option,
but I think it is too late for it to help much.
With her weight loss it would be good to use hill's a/d or baby
food (chicken or turkey) along with her regular food to help with
her weight.
Sorry no miracle cures with lymphoma,
Jerry Murray, DVM
