Hi Jane22 I had the same thing happen to me (blood got back into the byetta pen) i was told by the pharmacist NOT to use it and throw it away, the diabetic clinic confirmed this was the right thing to do on a later visit. Try keeping the top pressed as you withdraw the needle and unscrew it this will stop any fluid in the needle being drawn back inside the pen
