541264 tn?1359203511 I'd rule out anything physical (like mouth formation problems, being tongue tied, teeth issues) and also have his hearing checked--hearing problems can cause speech issues, too. Then I'd see if speech therapy is a possibility. Can you have him evaluated--to see if there are any other issues with him? My son didn't speak clearly for quite a while (he spoke later than other kids his age)--then when he did start speaking, he couldn't say his "r's" and he had a lisp.
Avatar f tn I have never been able to say my R's I was in speech for 5 years and it didn't help at all. I'm not tongue tied I've been checked. Hope the best for him it wasn't horrible growing up not being able to say it but it wasn't a piece of cake either, I got made fun of a lot but everyone "Thought it was cute/sexy" for some reason lol.
Avatar f tn The idiots who commented below the poll are blaming Bush. Game blame never changes. So the R's have to give into what Obama wants and if not it's the R's fault. America get dumber and dumber as the days go by.
Avatar m tn Then there is the mechanical part of communicating our language and that is speech. Problems with speech can include just trying to get the words out, pronouncing the words, the tonal quality of our speech, using emphasis and inflection. Problems with speech can be from weakness or spasticity of the muscles of our mouths, throats and vocal cords. Or it can be with the way our brain tries to direct the speech.
757726 tn?1261944364 I was told by a Neurologist that a 3mm lesion was found in the centre of my brain (not sure of the clinical jargon used). Along with insomnia, chronic pain, EBV, and blurry vision, speech , forgetfulness and hand tremours, he wasn't convinced I have MS. I explained that these symtpoms started when I was a police officer and needed assistance mopving my right leg getting out of my patrol vehicle. I tried to fight horendous headaches that ended me up in hospital ER's for he past 6 years.
9771188 tn?1405907831 Has anyone had problems communicating? I have problems with finding the right word to use. Sometimes I use I will get so frustrated. My family and friends say that I repeat myself a lot. I do know this, especially when I am excited, happy or upset. I completely lose my train of thought. I used to be able to speak in public, and train people. This has been difficult for me. Am I alone? I have battled through much worse demons than this, but I don't want to give up now.
3058745 tn?1351112728 He is having problems suvking, so when I put him to reast all he does is smash my nipple. So I pump, but its hard to get that colostrum out. They said its easier when hes at breast bc u can keep swotchimg him and he can eat unyil he stos sucking, but with a pump u should do it 2 hours apart for 20 mins a peice. Im not sure why. But im going to.feed him the milk as soon as it.comes in, I juss dont feel like 1-2ml of.colostrum every 2-3 hours is enough for.
Avatar m tn D's & R's are all part of the whole corrupt political system we have in this country. Nothing in DC will change. Just because the Senate is now full of guys with "R's" on their shirts instead of "D's", doesn't mean they'll lie, cheat, steal and do-nothing any better than the last guys that occupied their seats. Fine. The Republicans took the Democrats to task, and took the Senate. Who cares? Nothing will change.
1088527 tn?1425313375 I had this test 3 yrs ago and it showed food getting stuck on right side so went to speech therapy learned some tricks. Things have changed this time for the worse the test showed that food is getting stuck in my esophagus and wont move even after large quantities of fluid. I only eat 1 meal a day because after the 1st few bites and havibg it stuck there I lose my appetite. I go to speech nxt week and see what they can do for me.
Avatar m tn t breathe all the time even though the spirometer tests were normal and I was scared about it. Have you seen a speech therapist? It made a world of a difference for me. What happened is, and I know this sounds crazy, but your body has probably forgotten how to breathe. Since anxiety makes people have bad breathing patterns, even when you're not anxious, you can feel out of breath. I laughed when I was told to go to a speech therapist but I was oh so wrong.
1530342 tn?1405016490 His delivery was really good ( Yes, I concede) Condi was every bit of what I expected. (Perfect speech). The republican party is lucky to have her. I can't wait for Mitt tomorrow!!!!....Man, What will the Obama Campaign rebuttal be?? They better be ready....
Avatar f tn I have an 8 year old step son he is so lazy won't complete simple tasks, lies about them, pretends he doesn't hear us, refuses to listen and follow directions or instructions.
Avatar f tn My 4 year old granddaughter has obvious speech problems. It is very hard to understand her. Her speech patterns have also changed. She used to call her mother "Mama-ee" and now she calls her "Mahee". She cannot pronounce her own name, Meaghan. I want my daughter to get her a hearing test and she says she does not think she has a hearing problem.
163305 tn?1333668571 Good speech. I always like a good speech and easily can fall into speech trance. Where I'm cheering "yes! yes!" and overall, I don't even really agree with the idea when I really think about it later. But speeches that are hopeful and speak of good things to come are what this country really needs. I do want us to be one nation and it starts with our president. so, he did a good job yesterday. Ha, I miss raspberries.

Avatar m tn There are three parts of speech--- articulation (making the sounds) is one we all think of with speech. but there is also receptive speech (the ability to take in and organize what is said to you so that you can understand it) and expresssive (the ability to formulate the thoughts you want to express, to organize those thoughts into words to speak). Motor planning has a huge impact on these speech componants.
Avatar m tn t say much. Not communicating very much has fed my speech problems and really hurt my social skills and my self-esteem, so I've decided to finally try to do something about it so I can feel comfortable making conversation with people. After listening to recordings of my speech and watching myself speak on video and in a mirror, I definitely noticed that I don't speak with very good articulation.
1442701 tn?1286383987 It is harder walking at the end of each day. Today wasn't a good one. The buzzing sensation started when walking this morning & I had to ask someone else to take workers around to show service locations! I was so embarrassed & then one lady had the nerve to ask me if I would qualify for disability! Sheeps wool!!! I was so aggravated! My first MRI showed lesions in the gray matter in 2005. The person reading it said it indicated MS to them. Went to neuro & he said migraines.
Avatar f tn m trying to ask is- a)in the case of older kids with very strong personalities, what do you suggest? b) I want to be clear on his speech delay. My son has scattered skills including with speech. He knows how to say "I have to pee pee" or "I have to poopie" so the speech isnt an issue in this case, people potty train nonverbal kids. I am certain I can get him to pee in the potty on a schedule but I dont know how to get him to tell me he has to go.
Avatar f tn W/PHYSICAL THERAPY AND AT HOME EXERCISE HE WAS DISCHARGED W/FULL ROM. HE MET ALL OF THE MILESTONES EXCEPT SPEECH, AT 18MONTH HE STARTED W/HI & BYE . MY CONCERN NOT ONLY LYES W/SPEECH BUT I DONT BELIEVE HE UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING I SAY TO HIM. HE BABBLES HIS OWN WORDS LIKE HE REALLY HAS ALOT TO SAY BUT I DONT KNOW WHAT HE IS SAYING. I HAD A HEARING TEST (BAER) TO SEE IF THERE WAS A PROBLEM AND IT WAS NORMAL. I TOOK TO A DEVELOPMENTAL PED. DOC AT 18 MONTHS AND HE DID NOT SUSPECT ANY AUTISM.
400099 tn?1282954864 s not really bad at this point. I have to go to speech therapy to learn tips, exercises to strengthen muscles in throat, etc. Is this common with relapsing remitting MS? It's been hinted at that I've moved onto secondary progressive. Does anyone else have swallowing problems?
645800 tn?1466860955 This test checks your ability to decode (ability to quickly and accurately process speech), Tolerance fading memory (ability to understand speech in noise and short term memory), Integration (ability to pull together auditory information), and organization (organize and sequencing of auditor information). Basically they present 4 words that you have to repeat back, but they say other words in the opposite ear at the same time. Again I had horrible test results.
