I was diagnosed with mild dyslexia in the 1980s. I mix up d and b and write some letters upside down (numbers are not a problem, 6s and 9s, but I was told that I write my 8s upside down). I was always a prolific reader but could not spell at all. Early 2000s I read a paragraph [1] about how people can read sentences that have the letters scrambled as long as the first and last letters are in the right place. I think it is a general phenomenon (Typoglycemia on wikipedia [2]) and not just the dyslexic.
