What Does A Calcified Granuloma In The Right Occipital Lobe Indicate?

I am diagnosed with a calcified granuloma in right occipital lobe in MRI . Doctor advised this test bcoz I am suffering from severe headache, memory problem , Sudden blurred vision and even though sometimes speech, from last one year. I am a teacher so can't afford all this.
Sometimes I forget what exactly next word I am going to speak.
Doctor just gave me anti depressant for 3 weeks. During Medication problem was not as much. But now all that started again. When headache get started, it feels better to die rather to bear pain and pressure in the head and eyes.
Kindly advice me. I will be grateful to you.
