A member asked:
Doctors, do you think i can develop dyslexia over the years or is it just something you have?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: The neurological pathways responsible for learning delays are usually formed prior to birth. New onset learning delays such as dyslexia in an adult should prompt a complete neurologic evaluation.
