adults who have cfrd, take insulin and have gastroparesis

wondering if anyone in the cfrd community who takes insulin also has delayed gastric dumping (gastroparesis).
I've been having bg lows 1 to 1.5 hours after taking insulin & eating and have severe distention (especially after dinner). so i treat for the low and a few hours later the bg is up way too high. i think the stomach is not getting the food to the intestines quick enough to get absorbed into the blood stream and the insulin starts acting... resulting in a bg low. anyone else experience this??
