8. You don't mention if there are other medical conditions you have.

If you're taking other meds, you should be getting that checked, too. Any other current conditions that could cause this? For myself, I know that in the last 5-10 years, hot weather has been a reason for me to get drowsy (I'm 63). I find myself getting sleepy at work, and a 1-2 hour nap each day on the weekend (after a good night's sleep) is not uncommon when its hot and humid.

There may well be something else going on, and along with the other recommendations for checking your heart, a general checkup may find something. Yeah, guys don't like to go for checkups regularly, and doctors are generally anathema except when we're on our deathbed, but regular maintenance helps everything last longer.
