On my last MRI it showed that I have a 3mm area of brain that is getting wrong signals. To me this sounded like a brain tumor but the doctors are saying it is nothing to worry about. I don't know. I can't say if it has caused any problems or nor because I have so many problems it is hard to know what is caused by what. Hopefully, this will not cause you any problems.
Good luck.

A lesion in the Right Cerebellum could, depending on its location in the right cerebellum, eventually lead to muscle incoordination (ataxia) of the right arm and leg, or the left arm and leg.

Answers would best be obtained from your neurosurgeon, with in depth examination and testing, and planning.

Best Wishes.........
