I don't think it's that you can't read, it's that your concentration may not be what it should be so it affects your comprehension. Have you been tested for ADD or ADHD? Or are you dyslexic?

Try discussing your symptoms with your doctor to see if there could be a physical cause for your inability to focus. If not, then you'll need to take steps to retrain yourself until your concentration improves. Here are some links with tips that may help:

Yup, you need to train your concentration.
