Yes U should look into speech therapy, but therapy in general...make sure his hearing is ok......there r forms of autisum that can case speech delays...look up aspbergers (sp?).......I hope ur son responds to whichever therapy u choose.

I went to my speech therapy this morning. She had me saying ahhhhhh, ooooh, eeeeh and reading from what looked like a grade second reader. The she made a mistake. She said, "Tell me a little about yourself." Now, being a complete windbag I went into a dissertation that rocked her back on her heels. She kept asking me to take a deep breath as i talked.

She said that they do educational speech therapy and that Ashtyn needs Clinical speech therapy. Is there anything that would be as helpful as speech therapy since my insurance wont cover it and the ISD doesn't do the speech therapy that he needs? Ashtyn is very behind in almost all communication skills. I don't know what else to do for him, and no one can help him!

I had the same problem when I was little, but my parents put me in speech therapy and it pretty much cleared it up...

I have a sister who just had some serious language processing disorder issues (she does not have autism) and I remember she was very frustrated growing up until she started getting speech and language therapy. She started speech therapy when she was 4 1/2. But by the time she was in 5th grade you would never have known she had any language problems and got straight As in high school and college.

The degree of speech impairment that your brother will have could vary from dysarthria or slow, slurred speech due to damage to areas that control muscles of speech mechanism, apraxia of speech where there is difficulty in saying words correctly in a consistent manner. This deficit is evaluated immediately after the injury by a neurologist.

My case was pretty extreme but I did Occupational therapy, physical therapy and speech therapy daily. Occupational therapy was very helpful for me, but I was learning how to live in a wheelchair. I did do a lot of work on my arms and my shoulders and it was helpful very quickly.

There is no effective treatment for total cure of stammering, though speech therapy techniques précised may provide some relief to the stammerer. However, here is a sincere attempt to solve the mystery of stammering and also to find a cure to be tried by the stammerer himself or herself without interference from others.

Btw, getting a birth to three person can help with speech. He should qualify for speech therapy which does not mean he has autism.

Hi, Brain injured patients may receive rehabilitation that involves individually tailored treatment programs in the areas of physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech/language therapy, physiatry, psychology, and social support. A complete physical and neurological examination is needed in each treatment program. It would be best to discuss which treatment option is best for you with your doctor for proper evaluation and management. Take care and keep us posted.

he is progressing a little,he know to clap his hands,jumping.i hav seen the doctor and the doctor send me to the speech therapy...so the treatment is going on,he is making 4 words...and the teacher is working with him alone and told me to come to school...October i hav an appointment with the speech therapy and the teacher then they will decide wat to do...sometimes he reply wen u ask him a question n sometime he just repeats the questions....

I'm glad you gave an update from your speech therapy visit. It sounds like you have a good one and hopefully you will find the right combination of food consistency and flavor. I am picking up my afo next week - maybe we can compare notes. Mine is non-hinged, so I doubt i can sleep in it. I am getting it to stabiize my foot while my foot stress fracture heals. Do you happen to have any of those black boots they often give for foot injuries?

Your brother will not only need treatment from a neurologist but also from a rehab specialist. He will need physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy. Please consult a good rehab specialist. NIMS is a good hospital in Hyderabad, please discuss these options with his neurologist. Also please go ahead and try alternate treatment like homeopathy. Take care!

Hi Everyone- I'm new here, but I had a question about my 2 year old boy. He was diagonosed with PDD-NOS in August and he's been getting ABA therapy for about a month now. I was wondering if anyone has any great success stories with ABA. I know he's been getting only a month, but already I'm getting a bit frustrated. Before he started ABA, he has gotten 6 months of other therapy- speech, special instruction and physical therapy along with his twin sister.

He doesn't have speech therapy. He's five years old. He speaks clearly, and has a huge vocabulary, normal for his age. I'm not 100% sure about all of it, but I know it has more to do with his brain and comprehension.

Tests done include EEG, nerve conduction study, EMG, holter monitor, tilt table test, memory testing, barium swallow test, endoscopy (awake and knocked out), hearing tests, and do physical therpay, occupational therapy and was doing speech therapy but now refered to a voice specialist, as the speech therapy place apparently doesnt deal with the speech disorder that I have now, they mainly work with stroke victims.

It’s never too late for speech therapy. Just go to a clinic that specializes in stuttering therapy. Not every SLP will have experience in this area as our field is quite broad. They will come up with treatment techniques that is best suited for your need!

Hi Heather Today we had our three year old daughter confirmed with a atrophic vermis. She has restricted balance when standing still or sitting and her speech is 6 months to a year delayed. She can run, climb etc and can say three word sentances. Our Neurologist at this time can offer no real outlook other than stimulation of the brain and motor skill via "sensoral integration" therapy and speech therapy will help her.

Is your son receiving speech therapy? I think that is the most important thing for him to improve his language. If he is already getting speech therapy, maybe he needs it more often.

suggested occupational therapy then speech therapy. She said that some kids who have speech delays are showing some Autistic traits that will disappear later on. My husband doesn't want him to start any therapies yet because he said he's still young & he wants to give him a time because he believes that it's not Autism. We enrolled him to a toddler class instead so he can interact with other kids because he's our only child & he doesn't have playmates.

For most stroke patients, the rehabilitation process includes nursing, occupational therapy (OT), physical therapy (PT), therapeutic recreation (TR) and speech therapy (or speech language therapy, SLP). OT involves exercise and training to help the stroke patient relearn everyday activities, sometimes called the Activities of daily living (ADLs), such as eating and drinking, dressing, bathing, cooking, reading and writing, and toileting.

He has had Autism testing, speech therapy for the last 5 months. this poor kid has been to every doctor possible. After the autism testing he was diag. with anxiety disorder and speech. But now they think the anxiety symptoms are really just from Chiari and being in pain.

My son had a speech delay they recognized at 18 months after he had tubes put in his ears around the same time. I took him to speech therapy at "Columbus Speech and Hearing." They first did a hearing check to make sure everything was ok. Then autism was another good thing to look into. Their first plan of attach, though, was "early intervention" with speech therapy one day a week for a half hour at "Columbus Speech and Hearing.

My husband was diagnosed with Graved Disease and has had radio iodine therapy in March. He has since fallen severely hypothyroid and has slurred speech as well as fatigue, weight gain, and irritability. His MD has put him on Synthroid, but my question is will his speech go back to normal and if so, how long? It's very disturbing to hear because it sounds as if he has been drinking (he doesn't at all), and I'm worried how this may affect him long term.

Hi, my son is almost 3.5 yo. He was diagnosed with speech delay 6 moths ago, so far he finished 6 weeks Intervention program and 6 weeks of speech therapy. He's doing great, now he has around 100 words and likes to sing songs. He has troubles expressing his emotions and wishes, and does not play with kids in preschool. He's great with fine and gross motor skills, really good climber, knows all letters, counting till 100, likes to write numbers and letters, has good eye contact.
