I just took my shot in the stomach with the auto pen and when pulling out some of the Humira leaked out onto my stomach. Did i waste the shot?? it was a really tiny amount that leaked, but still i am nervous! should I just take a second shot?? any help would be appreciated. This is the first time i ever messed up the shot.. i have endless supply of needles cause in canada my Humira is covered for free ..so should I just go ahead with another one ? or would that mess me up?

That is pretty normal for a little to leak out. No don't take another shot. My wife is a Registered Nurse she gives me my shot and that happens to me. She has told me it is normal with any subcutaneous injection.
 
thanks so much for the reply. No one ever told me about the leakage so I was freaked out about how much humira I might have lost. i' still gonna give my GI a call tomorrow Thanks!!
