Were you with a woman that was promiscuous?

Joking aside. Dont worry. Lots of people have it. Some to different degrees than others.
Just another thing to have to deal with. Be positive and joke about it. You'll do fine. DO they have medications for it?

your right i dont have it to bad, but its noticable. VERY noticable

today i rang up a lady for cigarettes, she asked me how much they where before they bought them, i thought i said $5.38, but what i actually said was $3.58, i apologized and said that i mix up numbers and letters quite often, then she said "oh! you have dyslexia".

Many individuals with dyslexic symptoms involving reading, writing, and spelling also exhibit symptoms in other domains such as poor short-term memory skills, poor personal organizational skills, problems processing spoken language, left-right confusion, difficulties with numeracy or arithmetic, and issues with balance and co-ordination

i researched it and i looks like i do indeed have it. Also i cant add or subtract very well, i have to use my fingers or do it on paper.

also i cant tell my left from my right, like when i was learning how to drive and my dad or whoever i was with told me to turn in one direction and i would go the other.

Some shared symptoms of the speech/hearing deficits and dyslexia:

Confusion with before/after, right/left, and so on
Difficulty learning the alphabet
Difficulty with word retrieval or naming problems
Difficulty identifying or generating rhyming words, or counting syllables in words (phonological awareness) Difficulty with hearing and manipulating sounds in words (phonemic awareness)
Difficulty distinguishing different sounds in words (auditory discrimination)
Difficulty in learning the sounds of letters
Difficulty associating individual words with their correct meanings (alot of you have seen this)
Confusion with combinations of words
Due to fear of speaking incorrectly, some kids become withdrawn and shy or become a bully out of their inability to understand the social cues in their environment

[edit] Reading and spelling
Spelling errors — Because of difficulty learning letter-sound correspondences, individuals with dyslexia might tend to misspell words, or leave vowels out of words (e.g., spelling "magic" as mjc).

Letter order - Dyslexics may also reverse the order of two letters especially when the final, incorrect, word looks similar to the intended word (e.g., spelling "dose" instead of "does").

Highly phoneticized spelling - Dyslexics also commonly spell words inconsistently, but in a highly phonetic form such as writing "shud" for "should". Dyslexic individuals also typically have difficulty distinguishing among homophones such as "their" and "there".

Reading — Due to dyslexics' excellent long term memory, young students tend to memorize beginning readers, but are unable to read individual words or phrases.

Vocabulary - Having a small vocabulary.

Individuals with dyslexia:

May be bright, intelligent and articulate, however their reading, writing and spelling level is below their average age group.
Have the same intelligence range as people without dyslexia.
May have poor academic achievement due to their problems with reading and writing.
May have good oral language abilities but will perform much more poorly on similar written-language tests.
Might be labelled lazy, dumb, careless, immature, "not trying hard enough," or as having a "behavior problem."
Because dyslexia primarily affects reading while sparing other intellectual abilities, affected individuals might be categorised as not "behind enough" or "bad enough" to receive additional help in a school setting.
Might feel dumb and have poor self-esteem, and might be easily frustrated and emotional about school reading or testing.
Might try to hide their reading weaknesses with ingenious compensatory "strategies".
Might learn best through hands-on experience, demonstrations, experimentation, observation, and visual aids.
Can show talents in other areas such as art, drama, music, sports, mechanics, story-telling, sales, business, designing, building, or engineering.
Have related problems with attention in a school setting; for instance they might seem to "zone out" or daydream often; get lost easily or lose track of time; and have difficulty sustaining attention.[45]

My hubby has dyslexia, mostly mixes up words and their meanings. Like the time he told his boss at work he needed time off to get his hysterectomy (vasectomy!)
