I'm looking at my MRI results and I'm seeing terms like calcified granuloma in the right parietal lobe and mild diffuse cerebral atrophy. Can you help me understand what these really mean? Is there something I should be worried about?

View allI've been diagnosed with a calcified granuloma in the left frontal lobe of my brain a couple of years ago, and it's really starting to worry me. Lately, I'm having these extreme headaches, and I'm feeling really weak and dizzy, almost as if I'm losing control over my body. Plus, I've had epilepsy in the past with about four seizures already. Could this have anything to do with the granuloma, or should I be looking at something else? What do you think I should do?
Calcified granuloma in the brain can sometimes cause symptoms such as headaches, weakness, dizziness, and loss of body control. Given your medical history of epilepsy and previous fits, it is important to address these new symptoms promptly. I recommend consulting with your healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation.

I've been experiencing something a bit unusual. Occasionally, when I touch my skin, it feels hot to me, but when I ask others to feel it, they say my skin's actually cold. At the same time, even though my body feels warm on the inside, I start feeling really cold when the fan is on a higher speed. I don't have any other symptoms and it doesnt seem like a fever because I feel normal otherwise. Could you help me figure out what's going on?
You may be experiencing a sensation of altered temperature perception, where you feel hot but others perceive your skin as cold. This phenomenon could be due to various reasons such as changes in blood circulation, nerve function, or even psychological factors. One possible explanation could be related to a condition called peripheral neuropathy, which can affect how your body senses temperature. I recommend you to take Acetaminophen 500mg for relief, and if the symptoms persist or worsen, it would be best to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
