Craig,
If it turns out you're headed toward that family of diagnoses, there are many books that can help. One in particular: Too Loud, Too Bright, Too Fast, Too Tight: What to Do If You Are Sensory Defensive in an Overstimulating World, by Sharon Heller.
This is written from the adult's perspective, but it may help you understand why your son reacts the way he does to certain stimuli.
The drugs that help with many kid problems do nothing for sensory defensiveness. And since so little is really known, you need to be more of an advocate for your child and find specialists with more experience
