I have tht problem to but it is not only when I inject through clothing, I also sometimes get it when I inject into bare skin. I also find that my sugars rise after the meal.
I have always been told to hold the plunger (or what ever ppl call it) down for about 6 secs to make sure that all the insulin goes through the needle, but even doing this I still have some insulin coming back out when i remove the needle.

lg, how you manage to inject through clothes by accident?
