Metronidazole is a known trigger for peripheral
Nerve damage.

Hopefully with time you will recover. Some do and
Some don 't.

Drug induced or toxin induced PN often responds
To acetyl carnitine. 500mg to start and work up
to 2000mg a day in divided doses. This helps the
damged mitochondria use fatty acids for
Energy instead of glucose. This may be
Helpful for your diabetes too.
