Yes: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder can co-exist. A psychiatric evaluation can help to explore this.

ADHD & OCD: Good question. Absolutely. Up to half (maybe more) of people with ADHD have another diagnosis at sometime as well. So ADHD + a lot of things can happen. I found this article helpful, maybe you will too: http://www.additudemag.com/adhd/article/6113-3.html Make sure you are in the care of a specialist in mental health.
