Its probably a spike after a meal. When my sugars are high I feel extremely sleepy

No I don't, as @ewelina says if your spiking high after a meal this could be the cause.

Yes carbs make me sleepy even when BS is good. That's why low carb suits me well

If you know exactly what you're going to have for your upcoming meal, you could reduce the spike by taking your insulin before the meal, rather than afterwards.
