Skinny jag turned my pee BLACK and nearly killed me

Plan to lose weight before Dubai holiday left mum sick in hospital

A MUM claims she almost died when the skinny jags she used to fit into her holiday clothes led to her pee turning black.

Claire Reid began using GLP-1 class weight loss injections in March after seeing others have success.

The 49-year-old from Aberdeen wanted to lose weight ahead of a holiday in Dubai with her daughter.

Claire paid £200 a month for the jags she bought from a reputable online pharmacy, claiming she only had to fill out a questionnaire to get them.

GLP-1 RA drugs were originally developed to treat diabetes but are now often also used to aid weight loss because they suppress appetite.

Claire lost 4st, dropping from 15st to 11st in just four months. However in June she found herself unable to eat or drink anything without feeling sick.
