First things first: You may have a sub mucous cleft palate and poor ability to close the back of your nose that may be causing your speech issues. Depending on the severity speech therapy can be very effective for this. You need to have a thorough exam including nasopharyngoscopy to determine the cause and from that the best form of treatment.
