I would have put a "laugh" emoji but as someone who has dyslexia my heart went out to this person. I always have a "dick-chin-eerie" close by - but there are times when I laugh at what I have written and have a good giggle at my own expense.
Predictive text can change what you put in. I cannot type a certain league players name in right. Mr Mitchell always comes up as Latrine Mitchell, I put the right spelling in and it changes to latrine every time.

I share your problem, recently I ordered some Compression Socks online. When they arrived they weren't able to get open enough to be used they were so impossibly tight. I was disgusted ,
, a lot of emails later they have agreed to give me back 60% of my money. And oh gee !!!!!! I could even get to keep 3 pair
of useless socks. Go figure !!!!
WATCH THIS SPACE NO REFUND YET...........
My wife needed some full length stockings for a short time.
We went to a specialist shop for them - one that also sells walking aids, bathroom accessories etc etc.
Prices on their website were only around 10% of the shelf prices.
But ... after correctly measuring length of leg, circumference of calf/thigh ... we were given the correct ones for her. The prices were nothing compared to the benefit afforded her.

I had to fit them for her every day.
Hard work and sure toned up my arm muscles :D but they were exactly what was needed for her at that time.

Amazingly the swelling subsided on its own after around 2 months, and they are no longer needed.
