For what its worth I used to have bad OCD, and still exhibit minor features.
I also exhibit some symptoms of inattentive ADD.The private doctor I saw said that I couldn't possibly have ADD because I didn't exhibit any signs of hyperactivity, he added a directive to my notes stating that I should never be given any type of stim. Thats what I payed £315 for (whoops).
Sorry about rant.In short I think its perfectly possible to have OCD and inatentive ADD.
Also some people find stims actually help with compulsion apparently.
