I hope you have an appointment with your Radiation Oncologist soon....I find it so unfair for you to get this report without a doctor explaining it. I can tell you my last MRI report freaked me out because my doctor left his office early. Thankfully another radiation oncologist came to my rescue and read it for me. I am hoping from what I read on yours that you are having some fluid (edema) and scar tissue hanging out up there. Mine report showed a new tumor (even though I had done the gamma knife 3 months earlier. It turned out to be a blood vessel which was perfectly fine. Hang in there, take some deep breath's and try to stay busy.
