Worse being inverted letters. I just won't see it. My brain will fix it to make a proper word. I don't read per syllabus, it's a major pain for me to do that.

Technically it's not dyslexia (or it wasn't 30 years ago when I worked as a dyslexia tutor). Dyslexia is more associated with problems reading and comprehending what you are reading.
I've got the same issue with spelling. My brain simply recognizes what the word should be from the context and I never really notice the misspellings. The human brain is a pretty odd thing. I've noticed that some people feel perfectly justified sneering at other people's misspelling while they would never think of mocking someone who stuttered.
