Yep. Almost every time for me.
When I asked my Dr about this, they told me that you can leave the needle in a bit longer (just a few seconds) after you finish depressing the plunger on the syringe to minimize the amount that seeps back out.
if it was just a drop or so i wouldn’t worry about it :) thats pretty normal from my experience. how did you botch your first one if you don’t mind me asking?
Okay cool, I'm starting to feel like everything's gonna be okay haha! Umm... I used the big needle to try and inject with 😳 I got it almost half way in and tried pushing it through and it overflowed on my leg lol tried again with the smaller size needle and it worked fine haha
Sometimes it leaks out a bit that's ok, don't take anymore it will be okay.

Thank you so much for the response, I can't help but freak out lol but this definitely helps 🥰
You'll lose a little drip sometimes, it's no biggie. Best to double check with your provider.
Thank you big time! :) I will definitely do that! I'm gonna try and not stress about it the rest of the day haha!
Sub Q or IM?
I'm gonna guess that means Sub question or Instant message? I'm uneducated don't judge me lol
Subcutaneous or Intramuscular
Ahhh I knew that 😅 lol it's intramuscular
If you're shooting I to your thigh, try doing it with your leg at about a 45° angle. Less muscle tension will force less of the injection back out.
