Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
I require more information before commenting on the diagnosis and treatment. Most importantly, I need to examine you.
Somehow, the MRI brain findings do not correlate with your symptoms. If you can upload the complete MRI report, it would be useful.
So, as of now, I feel your problem can be treated.
Please get back if you require any additional information.

Best wishes,
