nerve damage

(Arizona)
this is how he lays most all day
My Grey Cheek Parakeet (Quaker) was treated for zinc poisioning, he went through 4 series of shots (2 a day for 10 days). He now does not act right he twitches badly and keeps his head down often. He will not play with his toys and only talks very minium now where he was a very good talker before.
He is going to be 3 years of age in May. Can he possible get over this nerve damage or should he see a specialist and how would I find one. My Vet is very good but I feel that he doesnt listen to all my complaints. He still has not grown all his feathers back on his chest and his beak lining is lighter now then before, its lighter then the rest of his beak.
He was checked for beak and feather disease which was negative. Please help I love my bird and just want him well again.
