Default Unusual Sleepiness

I am wondering if anyone else is dealing with this problem. I am having a sleepiness problem and i can't find a cause for it. No matter how long I sleep at night, 1 hour or 10 hours, i am getting very sleepy about 1 1/2 to two hours after my morning medication. I am taking 1 - carbo/levo 25/100, 1 - carbo/levo 50/200CR, and 1 - Comtan 200 when I first wake up in the morning. I have been on this dosage for close to 8 years now. I also take 1 - paxil like at 10 am so I don't mix it with the other medications in trying to find the cause.

By sleepiness I mean I get this dopey feeling that kind of feels like it washes over my body and as hard as I try to fight it, I MUST go to sleep. Usually I will sleep for an hour to two hours. When I wake up I am just fine and continue my plans for the day. I continue to take my medications at the needed times without having the sleepiness. I have been to both my GP and MDS about this and neither find anything wrong. All test return normal.

Any help or suggestions would be appricated
