A mum has been diagnosed with the UK's rarest, incurable cancer after suffering chest pain she thought was from Mounjaro weight-loss jabs.
-
Dawn Clegg, 51, began suffering from the pain in late March this year after taking the jabs which helped her deal with her diabetes.
But after having several X-rays at the hospital, shadows were found on her lungs, kidneys, and breast and she was later diagnosed with a soft-tissue cancer.
