At last resort, you could be taught by a right handed teacher, and a large mirror. When he/she is showing you what to do, you look in the mirror, and you will see everything as if he/she was left/handed, and playing a left-handed instrument.
That might work. Now on to the next question. How much does a fiddle go for these days and not only that but of course the lessons to play it?
Because there are right and left-brained people. Generally, left-brained people are artistic, good musicians. Right-brained folks are more analytical, adept at math, and data.
You love playing an instrument and it comes easy to you. I love MUSIC, but I also LOVE studying mathematics. Outside of my major, I took several pure maths courses in college because I loved it.
One isn't right or wrong, they're just different. Of course, there is overlap. For instance, music depends heavily on math.
Technically solid musicians, depend more on their right-brain. Solid left-brained musicians are the Jazz players.
The Right Brain, The Left Brain, and the Musician
The concept of “right brain” and “left brain” is a proven one; the right side of the brain largely governs creative and intuitive thinking, while the left side largely governs logic, mathematics, a…laurierileymusic.com
Fiddles (violin, fiddle, same thing) cost anywhere from about $100 (beginner's level) or if you have more money to spend that can cost thousands. You can get a darn good one though for about $400. Used ones are often cheaper than new ones. and often have MUCH better sound.

Lots other fiddle players, and many of them are women. There are hundreds in America and Europe, if not thousands.

If you can see, and have two hands with functional fingers, you have ability. Cats have zero ability. Dogs have zero ability. You have ability.

Lessons vary from about $25/hour to about $80/hour. Avoid lessons that are by the half hour, half hour is too short a time for violin/fiddle lessons.'
I strongly advise learning the VIolin on a MANDolin first. Learn a few tunes and the scales on the mandolin, which are identical in the fingering, to the violin, and then graduate to the violin. Like the violin, you can get a cheap laminated (plywood) wood mandolin for $100, or even less. If you want to start with a more quality instrument of all solid wood, or at least with a solid top, they can be had nowadays for $200 and up.
The Rogue RM-100A, which you can pick up for around $50, is the cheapest mandolin (laminated not solid wood) available on the market that’s still of decent quality.
You can go to al local music store, a if they are any good, they should have some decent SOLID TOP mandolins for under $200. I went to my local store recently (Sam Ash) and they had 3 of these (an Epiphone, a Washburn, & a Mitchell). ALL were good sounding. If the store doesn't have any left-handed violins or mandolins, ask them to order an equivalent of one that you try out and like, but in left-handed version.

Take a few lessons and expand your ability. You won't regret it. You'd be surprise how much you could advance just from a one hour lesson.
10 minutes every day, adds up to 3,650 minutes in a year's time. That's equivalent to 61 hours.
