Have any of you ended up becoming dyslexic, well sort of. I don't mix up letters as much as I just see other words or numbers totally. I may read it again and it be right or I might have to wait and come back to it. I grew up reading time by traditional clocks. Never had a problem until all this started and now I have to take a bit of extra time to figure it out. I also cannot track paragraphs that are very long or that don't have double spacing between paragraphs.

I just wondered if it's a different problem with me or not unusual for fibro.

Lendi, I have never had this problem. I read a lot of novels and, as I’ve aged, I do need magnifying glasses if the print is smaller but that’s about it.

I do ask people to double space between paragraphs on this forum because the print is small and it is easy to lose our place.

Have you had your eyes checked by an opthomologist? It might be a good idea to make sure there is nothing going on with your vision. Problems are fixed easier if they are detected earlier. I’m not saying there is a problem with your vision but I know if I was having this problem I would want to rule out vision problems

Thanks for your reply. I rarely have a problem with this forum. I was just wondering if it was something other's have went through.

It has been going on for several years actually and I've seen the opthomologist several times. But, I also have lesions on my brain (like MS ones) that might be doing it. It would just be nice to know.
