Struggling with diagnosis Speech language disorder vs Autism

My son is 8 years old. We are struggling since he has 2.5 years old and doctors have failed to give us a diagnosis. He has a language/speech disorder and hand flapping behavior. He is getting school and speech therapy, he has 8-10 half words but mostly he is quiet.
Doctors cannot tell if its only speech and language disorder which will go away with time or . He has a strong eye contact, loves playing with siblings and bonds with grand parents cousins etc too. He does cycling, uses toilet independently etc. I have a long list of things he can do. He solves puzzles in schools, paints with assistance.
I have given him homeopathic treatment for 4 years too but no results so far.
If someone has dealt with Language disorder or Autism cases in past successfully please get in touch. I can provide further details too.
