Brief Answer:
Full MRI/ct-scan report is needed...

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Before running into final conclusions, may I have the full report of the MRI or ct-scan test you had?

The frontal region is responsible for personality, smelling issues. When the parietal lobe is affected, it might cause problems to speech; while problems with memory are usually associated with tumors/problems to temporal lobe.

Looking forward to have the full report in!
