No, you are born with dyslexia, if you have it mildly some of the symptoms may not show up until you are further into your schooling for example when you need to learn spellings and read.
My son showed symptoms from a very early age and was diagnosed when he was 7.
If you are concerned search on google/yahoo for symptoms of dyslexia.

You can´t develop dyslexia. Evidence suggests that dyslexia results from differences in how the brain processes written and/or verbal language. Although dyslexia is the result of a neurological difference, it is not an intellectual disability.
Dyslexia occurs at all levels of intelligence, average, above average, and highly gifted.

You can't develop it. But it might start to come through, whereas at an earlier age it might not have.
I find that with myself, I get confused sometimes with reading numbers, letters, and I can't at all read those things that you have to type in to verify that you aren't an automatic computer (like for an email account or something).
That probably isn't a form of Dyslexia but I used to have no problems with those things so they must have developed somewhere through my age.
Hope I have helped/ answered the question =]]

I have 2 opinions about this.
1. I have heard that a left handed child who is forced to write with his right hand can develop mixed brain dominance which may lead to some problems.
2. I taught myself to do mirror writing and I'm quite fluent. I had to stop because in normal forward writing my brain would get confused as to what direction the letters should be. So I believe you can pattern the brain or train it to be confused so therefore certain situations might replicate this. Does anyone know if people who used to set type (backwards, upside down) ever became dyslexic to the normal order of writing?

Yes, if you have a tramatic brain injury or if you overdose on some drugs. Alcohol and drug abuse account for most later onset learning disabilites.

This is a short circuit in how your brain works. Unless you had an injury, this would always have been present.

no most people are born with a minor form of it such as seeing letters or numbers backwards
