I'm having a big problem with daytime sleepiness. I can barely function at work because I get so sleepy, and sometimes I get very sleepy when driving, which is really not good. I rely on caffeine to get me through but sometimes that doesn't work and I'm trying to avoid using too much caffeine. Would appreciate suggestions.

There are so many possibilities in addition the 84 known sleep disorders that can make you tired. My best advice is to see your doctor.

Have you seen your doctor yet? I had the same problem. I almost feel off the chair when the doctor suggested that I have narcolepsy. They have meds that help. They didn't cure me, but they helped considerably. I have had this problem since I was in high school -- and it only got worse. See a Neurologist -- that is your best defense against this problem.
