    you can do it but it would be best if you changed the needle cuz after going through the rubber stopper its not as sharp, can make it a bit more painfull.

    Dulling of needle, possibility of getting bacteria from the rubber stopper onto the needle; but that's why you swab the rubber stopper first before you draw.

    Realistically if you do this once or twice because you are out of supplies, and you are 100% sterile about it, you will be fine. But don't make a habit of it. Use a different needle to draw the gear whenever you possibly can.

    And letting it sit capped for a few hours won't affect anything at all, that's just fine.

    I prepare my shot the night before, only because I don't want to waste time in the morning, but take the shot as soon as I get up then jump straight on the treadmill. And I always change the needle before injecting it's a must - ask yourself this question, would a doctor do it?
