I'm going to be cynical and guess that reading disorders aren't covered by any legislation?

The written reversals, trouble with spacing, and anxiety about the physical process of writing sound like what I've always referred to as dysgraphia. In fact it was symptoms like that, that led my parents to get me tested. The clues also included going through erasers faster than pencils. Before testing I would erase lots of incorrect words/letters. Post-testing, my adaptation is to write over the error (which leaves a pretty recognizable pattern) or cross out the wrong word and keep going.

Here's an understood.org article on dyslexia vs. dysgraphia:
