As others have said, it's impossible to say because every person and every treatment is different.
I received treatment for testicular cancer in late 2012 through early 2013. I tried so hard to WFH during chemo because I hadn't been at my job long enough to take FMLA and I needed to keep the health insurance to, you know, get the chemo, and I couldn't afford both COBRA and rent at the time.
There was no way I could actually concentrate on anything when I hurt so much that I couldn't sleep, let alone actually do my job. I ended up going so deep into negative PTO that for the following two years that I was at that place I was never able to take another day off.
