Paralympics winner Elena Krawzow was diagnosed with a brain tumor during an MRI.
The 27-year-old swimmer announced this on Saturday via her social media channels.
"I've been plagued by headaches and dizziness since Tokyo," wrote the Berliner.
After many appointments on vacation, she wanted to clarify the cause and have an MRI done.
Berlin - "On Friday evening I got an MRI with contrast agent and then it became quite clear that it was a tumor in the left upper half of the brain," said Krawzow.
Last Sunday she was briefly admitted to the Berlin Charité, followed by a tissue sample on Monday.
“Now it's time to wait two excruciatingly long weeks until all the results are there,” wrote the Paralympics winner from Tokyo.
