Hello
Your findings may suggest calcified granuloma in right temporal region of brain.
Calcifications shows healed stage and it is not active at all.It may be due to past healed neurocysticercosis,tuberculoma etc.
Some cases of calcified granuloma in brain may be associated with seizure.
This findings only need symptomatic treatment.
You are taking right medicines.Tegretol contains carbamazepine and it is an anti-epileptic.
You may need to take it for three years or more.It depend upon clinical evaluation.
Get well soon.
