Spell check is not a perfect science. I know what you mean! Being dyslexic is hard for a person; use spell check, but remember that it is often wrong!!
You sound quite intelligent, so you probably recognize when what it offers is not correct. Be guided by that. If it offers 6 words, and all 6 are wrong, then try your dictionary for the correct spelling.
Just remember that spell check doesn't take into account what you want to say!!

Spell check doesn't necessarily try to interpret what you're saying, it just takes the letters you are typing and attempts to put actual words to it. If you were to type something and it came out cN (c capital N) it will autcorrect to "can" because the capitalized button is close to the "A"

So you're saying this dyslexia only appeared after you asked all your previous Qs? I see you have not one spelling mistake in any of them.I think your problem is more 'trollexia' than dyslexia.
