Regurg right before shed?

Togo, my normally healthy eater, regurgitated for the first time earlier. It was five days after he had eaten the pinky, but I was wondering if it might have something to do with shedding. His regurg. was less than half an hour before his shed. The shed went really well and took less than 5 minutes. Does anybody have any suggestions as to when to try and feed him again? I'm kind of worried because this was his first regurgitation, and I just want to make sure he's okay.
Any and all input is greatly appreciated!

I would recommend waiting 10 days after the regurge to feed again. No handling during this time either. Basically leave him alone other than to check the water.

I second Christina's advice.

It's not that uncommon for corns to regurge if the eat while in shed. I have some corns that can handle a meal no matter what stage they are in, and I have corns that will regurge every time if I feed them while they are in shed. If I were you, I'd play it safe and avoid feeding it while nearing blue.
