I also have a problem using smaller sized keyboards. In fact typing in general became more difficult after I had seizures and was diagnosed with epilepsy. I noticed about a week before I started having grand mal seizures, that I was constantly making typing mistakes and spelling some words backwards. For example, the would be eht. I had never had problems like this before.
I had a doctor ask me if my handwriting had changed. He was the only doctor who asked this, but I told him that my handwriting had become very sloppy and I had trouble forming letters. In fact, I started printing rather than writing because I had trouble reading my own writing. I also had trouble spelling. Has anyone else noticed this?
