Hello and welcome to Healthcare magic. First of all let me assure you that there is nothing you that you should be worried of. ADHD is usually a childhood disorder and rarely diagnosed in the adult. Eventhough you have not mentioned your age, I believe you are not having any fatures of ADHD A TSH of 5.41 is only a little above the upper limit of nrmal. If you were my patient I would recommend you to do a repeat TSH (if possible complete Thyroid Function Test). Hope I have answered your queries. Feel free to write if you need further clarifications. Get well soon.
