I've been Dyslexia all my life.

One coping mechanisms, which I always use with numbers, is to read numbers 
and/or double check numbers in a double digit, or triple, digit formulation --  
i.e., I would not read a set of numbers one digit at a time.  I would read 
and/or double check 123-45-6789 as one-twenty-three, forty-five, sixty-seven, 
eighty-nine.  I don't know why it helps me, but it does.  You might give it a 
try.

Yes, I've had the same problems with numbers. You do learn some coping
mechanisms, such as you mentioned - double-checking by rote, etc.
