Thyroid? ADHD?

Just wondering if to get my Dd thyroid checked?
They seem to be sending her for any blood test available and I don't want to put her through it for the sake of it.

But I have been reading about thyroid problems and mis diagnosis of ADHD and wondered if anyone had any info?

Dd does have headaches, leg aches and struggles to get to sleep like insomnia fidgets around a lot.
I can't get to the bottom as these things all cross over- is it sensory? Is it ADHD? Is it asd? ... They are so conplex!

Adhd is non stop. There is no chance to misdiagnose it. Lived with it for 8 years with our ds. Interesting about thyroid, I'm going to look into it

Have a look and let me know. Can you have mild ADHD though? And lots of different types too?x
