Possible Solution to Dawn Phenomenon???

So, for any of you who have read my other post, I've been having DP for about a month. Then, "randomly" (or so I thought), I woke up Saturday morning in a normal range. Again on Monday, I woke up normal. I started pondering the connection, and came to this - both nights before going to bed I took Ibuprofen (I broke my toe Friday and I am taking it for pain). Basically, all other things were equal (i.e. time I went to bed, woke up, generally what I ate the night before in terms of fat content and carbs, BGLs before I went to bed, etc.) So I'm thinking, maybe my liver spends its time dealing with the Ibuprofen instead of pumping glycogen into my body? Last night, I purposefully did not take Ibuprofen before bed to test my theory out and sure enough, I woke up at 345. Just wondering what you guys think about my theory?
