What Causes Muscle Weakness And Muscle Fatigue In Children With Thyroid Disorder?

The problems seem related and require proper medical attention.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
There seems to be a direct correlation between the problems that you mentioned. The impaired thyroid function is likely to be the direct cause of the muscle weakness and muscle fatigue. The mood disorders also have a role to play. There seems to be a problem with the bowel movements and thereby the constipation. You need to put the child through controlled and guided regular exercise. Give her a high fibre diet including plenty of green leafy vegetables. Benadryl will not make her sleep. Rather, the mood disorders need to be brought under control in order to enable her sleep properly. Psychiatric referral is needed for the same.
