Default Can it be neuropathy?

Hi, I'm a new one here. My problem seems very complicated. I hope somebody can help me I'll try to make it short: I took a three month course of fluoroquinolones, which I started in January last year. In July I developed little tingling in my left arm and a bit of burning on my back part of left thigh. In August I visited a neurologist who said it was a sort of neuropathy and gave me vitamins. I was prescribed NEUROVIT (100mg of B1, 200 mg of pyridoxine and 0,20 mg of B12) once a day for 4 months. When I asked why so long - the doctor told me that nerves need much time to regenerate. So I started taking this medicine. In the meantime I noticed more tingling in both my arms and thighs and then in my legs. At month 3 I started feeling dizzy and I got acne-like rash on my back. I stopped taking neurovit then but my symptoms kept worsening - progressed to my front thighs and upper arms,made my legs feel tight, burning feeling and leg cramps started . I couldn't sleep for a month or so. It looks like a polyneuropathy to me, but 7 doctors I visited denied nerve damage (normal EMG, physical examination, no feet involvement) It's been 7 months since I stopped neurovit but I still feel all this burning and dizzinessAny advice how to reverse it?
