Question: Could I have dyslexia and didn't know it.? Please help!!!.?
Could I have dyslexia or some other reading learning disability.? I already have ADD but since last year I have a really difficult time focusing on the words. I also have been confusing letters like b,d,p,q and numbers like 6,9,3,5.
Other symptoms I have include:
-Read very slowly with many inaccuracies.
-Continue to spell incorrectly or frequently spell the same word differently in a single piece of writing.
-Avoid tests that require reading and writing, and procrastinate on reading and writing tasks.
-Have trouble preparing summaries and outlines for classes.
-Work intensely on reading and writing tasks.
-Have poor memory skills and complete assigned work more slowly than expected.
-Have difficulty with planning and organization.
-Spell poorly or rely on others to spell for them.
-Avoid writing or not be able to write at all.
-Difficulty with left and right.
-Dizziness, headaches while reading.
-Seems to have difficulty with vision, yet eye exams don't reveal a problem.
-Loses orientation on a line or page while reading, missing lines or reading previously-read lines again.Health Question & Answer

it is highly possible that You have dyslexia. As a student, you have rights. Go to your college counseling office and request a diagnostic assessment. If you are diagnosed with dyslexia, there are services that you have a right to receive that can help you overcome the dysfunction.

hm possibleHealth Question & Answer
It doesn't exactly sound like dyslexia, but maybe you should go to a neurologist because they could run a series of tests that could find something wrong with the wiring of your brain. You do not seem to have a problem getting your message across, but I am not a dr. either. The tests that the dr. runs are painless, and do not hurt. Sometimes it is just a miss wiring, and that could also explain your ADD. Are you taking meds. for your ADD.? Sometimes meds. can give off bad side effects. You should see your dr. for this, and ask them to send you to a neurologist if they cannot help you. Good LuckHealth Question & Answer
