Dyslexia carries with it a range of possible traits and 'symptoms'. Each individual trait is not exclusive to dyslexics, it's the combination of a number of them, or the presence of a couple of specific ones that lead to a diagnosis of dyslexia.

No two brains work exactly alike. Most people have ideosyncracies and oddities in the way their brain processes certain types of information, which if they were to be combined with a few other traits wold be considered a form of dyslexia. I have a serious difficulty with spacial relationships. I have no sense of direction and have great diffulty with certain spacial concepts. I also have difficulty with numbers.

I am neither dyslexic nor unintelligent :P
