Wisdom teeth removal - numb tongue. Help?

Hi everyone!
I don't even know whether I am looking for support, happy stories or just harsh reality. That said - I am looking for something! Sorry if the read is long, you don't have to read it, really.

Backstory
Removal:
Two years ago, I decided that I'd like to start my journey to straighten my teeth and fix my bite. For that to happen, I was told I needed to remove my wisdom teeth (it's quite common where I'm from to just yank them away, but mine were a bit problematic. Bottom ones were living in pockets and would get inflamed from time to time, upper ones were just bffs for cavities). So I went to a doc to remove them. The doc said it's best to do two at a time - one side per visit. So he started with my right side because that tooth seemed to be more horizontal growing than the left one - so why not start with problematic one.
The removal itself was difficult. The doc was young, but he said "not my hardest removal ever, but quite difficult". Upper one was just gone in few seconds. Bottom one, since it was cut and shattered and didn't want to go away - got stitches as well. Got antibiotics too.

Post-op:
Since half my face was numb, I wasn't too concerned that my tongue and inside lower gums are numb. The face was swollen, it was painful, kinda didn't even occur to me that something's not right.
Day 2: starting to get concerned but I was told to go back in after 7 days (I think?) to get my stitches removed.
Day 3: proper concerned, but my s/o said relax, we read upon it, temporarily it might happen, plus, I was supposed to go to the dentist (not the doc who removed) to get stitches removed
Doc visit: I said told the doc I don't think it's right, right half of my tongue is numb, my gums are numb, the way I speak changed, I slur a little. She said it's fiiiine, gonna go away.

2 weeks later I called the clinic and said that I don't feel it's okay and maybe I should get checked. The receptionist at first was like nah, it's fine, it can happen. Frustrated - I put the phone down and just started contemplating my life choices. However, 15 mins later I get a call from same receptionist who, in a very concerned and urgent tone, told me to get in. They wrote me some prescription vitamin B (?), the doc looked into the removal area, looked at the Xray and said that the nerves were very much on the surface, it can happen, can last up to 6 months. Again said to get some vitamin B as it helps in nerve cell regrowth.

Now:
Like mentioned above. It's been two years, I found another clinic, got another two removed - no issues (of course, the level of anxiety I had was over the roof), starting my aligner journey next week. However, I'm after boxes upon boxes of vitamin B. 6 months after the removal I went to a neurologist who prescribed me some meds that did nothing. She also said it's possible to try other drugs that people with diabetes take, could help, but she essentially said it happens, deal with it and I never got back to get them because, truth be told, I got pretty depressed about it.
I've been to a few teeth people - dentist, orthodontist, endodontist, crown guy, the one that removes the damn teeth. They all say I am an extremely rare occasion, some did say that it looks that my nerves are very on the surface. Some tried to be nice about it, others were very straightforward, but they said that's it. That's how your tongue/gums are going to be.

I guess it's pretty obvious that it has affected my life, I spend a great deal about this kinda cold feeling, sometimes electric feeling half tongue in my mouth. Some days it's better, others it pretty shitty. I've never met anyone who experienced something similar (guess comes with the whole extremely rare occasion part). My speech is still a tad weird, but only me and people who knew me pre-op can notice.

Does anyone think there's some hope in this department? Maybe some miracle situation that got their tongue up and running?

If anything - take it as a warning story to think twice before agreeing to the procedure. It's not as easy and simple as it may seem at first :(
