Elena Ksenofontova

In early 1990s, Ksenofontova suffered from severe headaches and vomiting till the bile. Different doctors gave her various diagnoses, which included brain tumor. After years of treatment, Ksenofontova was told that she would have to get used to living with these intolerable headaches. She later admitted she pricked herself with needles to replace one pain on another. She feel better now.
