I have not heard about Neuroaid until now (especially that it is not approved, yet). I googled this, and what I saw was that it is some kind of newly developed drug that is produced in China. Although there is some research being run now to test the effectiveness of this drug, I found an article about this drug (see the link). Based on the literature, this drug is being used in China in patient with brain injuries such as stroke 48 hours following a stroke.
Maybe you need to see a speech therapist for an eval and go from there.
The problems in MS depend on the area of nervous system most affected. In your wife’s case, the speech area appears to have been affected. However, the good news is that the problems persist only during the relapses or when the person is extremely tired.
Speech problems may include slurring, long pauses between words, nasal speech, tremor in voice etc. You could ask the hospital to send across a speech therapist. This will help improve her speech even while the inflammation is there.
Does he also use Delayed Echolalia eg. pieces of dialogue phrases or words from TV or films? The Speech and Language Therapist should be able to tell you more about it. I would specifically be asking for a Speech and Language Therapist who also has experience of autism.
Does your son mix up his pronouns eg. I, me, you, yours, mine, us etc.
What is your son's social interaction skills like?
Are there things that your son is good at eg. puzzles, lego, pattern recognition etc.

He didnt babble much as a baby, and not very much as a toddler, so at 2 years old I took him to a speech therapist...........now he is 4 and a half and the speech therapist just noticed that at the back of his throat his uvula is doubled, and she felt the back the top of the roof of his mouth and told me he has Submoucus Cleft Palate. We since have seen a nose ear and throat specialist and he says that my son doesnt need surgery, and should out grow his nasily sound by puberty.
She was assessed by early intervention (psychologist, speech therapist, and occupational therapist) and her pediatrician for autism and no one had any concerns. The speech therapist said she should be evaluated by a neuropsychologist. This is a very expensive assessment. Given the fact that she has been evaluated a couple of times do you think this is necessary? I am so frustrated, I have been trying to get her speech help for so long and have jumped through so many hoops.
XXXX will receive a minimum of 6 hours direct Speech and Language Therapy each term from a fully qualified and experienced Speech and Language Therapist, reviewed in line with the SEN Annual Review process.

Speech therapist and OT who are working with my son advised us against ABA in its pure form; they beleive that he does have the skills necessary for learning (imitation, play skills, etc), he has problems with compliance and seeks negative attention a lot. They do not view ABA approaches as suitable for him.....
My Son now pays attention to what I say. Responds to his name quite often say 6 out of 10 times. Dont mix up with kids ignores them. loves to see nursery rhymes, songs and immitates few actions.
He never showed his tongue out i tried very hard. He likes to get cuddled only by me and by my hubby, He loves us, kiss us. Used to be very active physically as soon as he started walking. now with bead activites, puzzles and stacking blocks he loves to sit and completes his activities.
Indeed the higher the cognitive level of the child the more appropriate it is and in some circumstances it can fool professionals into thinking that they have advanced verbal skills. An experienced Speech and Language Therapist who has experience of autistic spectrum disorders as well as speech impairments should be able to assess his speech and communication and social interaction skills.
Out of interest, also google Semantic Pragmatic Speech Disorder to see if that is relevant.
I live in Delhi, India and My pediatrician suggested me to consult speech therapist and I visited speech therapist also. He says she will talk in few months after attending few sessions, however, i dont see any change in my daughter after attending 5 sessions also.

This is something to speak to his pediatrician about and get a referral to an occupational therapist and speech therapist. They can help work with him to get past some of the sensory problems.
Also, I promise you he does feel emotion. I know it doesn't seem like he does, but people with autism do have strong emotions and feelings as they are people too. Has he been diagnosed with autism?
My son has sensory integration disorder and the two things that were noticed first were his speech and tripping. He was three. He was evaluated by an occupational therapist and has been doing OT since being diagnosed with sensory. He is now 6 and doing really well. Just thought I'd throw sensory into the mix for you to check out and see what you think.
Hi. It is hard to say if it is more than a global delay. I am so happy that you are looking into ways of helping her. Here in the states, we have a specialty called occupational therapist that really help kids with their challenges. My son has a developmental delay called sensory integration disorder. One area of sensory integration disorder that can cause late walking, speech issues, etc. is in the area of "motor planning".
