Hi, Thanks for asking. In my opinion your child seems to have developmental delay in motor development as well as speech and language area. If such a patient comes in my clinic I would like to rule out following conditions in him
1. Epilepsy.
2. Autism
3. Global developmental delay
For that I would like to do following investigations.
EEG
MRI Brain
Thyroid function Test
Developmental assessment
Assessment for Autism.
I hope i have helped you.
