Follow up with a neurologist will be needed in order to clarify. Access to imaging (CT, MRI) studies will help.

The lesion in your frontal lobe is not causing your memory symptoms. Suggest a second opinion perhaps at a nearby medical school

You can also get tested by a neuropsychologist to see if there are any brain processing issues. The neuropsychologist will provide recommendations if so. Peace and good health.
