I made a bad mistake. i gave myself a vit b12 shot and didn't get all the med out the 1st time and reinserted the needle to get the rest.am i ok?

Not too bad: Single use needles are more a concern to spread disease between individuals, than anything else. So as long as the site was clean, and you didn't sully the tip between injections, you should be fine.
