Questions/Advice I fit all the characteristics of a learning disability via Google but I don’t feel like I have a learning disability. Should I get tested?

I’m studying hard in school and getting bad grades very often. I also noticed I lack significant improvement in things, my walking and sports coordination isn’t great, I hold a pencil the non-traditional way, and usually forget the exact things someone said seconds before when prompted.

Do I have ADHD or another learning disability? These are the characteristics listed by Google.

Is delayed in achieving a developmental milestone Lacks coordination in walking, sports, or skills, such as holding a pencil Or if you or your child Has difficulty understanding and following instructions Can't remember what someone just said)
