Commonest cause of Polyneuropathies are diabetes and vit b12 deficiency. The microvascular changes which have already occured due to diabetes will have its effect on the neveres even though the sugars are under control now. the medications are for symptomatic relief. if there is symptomatic relief, then u need to continue on medications for a longer time. You can repeat a NCV after 3 months.
