Do you have any other symptoms? It's a stretch I know but when I had mononucleosis I could easilly sleep 12 hour days, at 17 years old.
I once fell asleep on the school bus heading home from a soccer game. I was woken up to river of drool down my chest and a massive headache from my head bouncing against the window at every pothole. Mono made me drowsier than I've ever felt my whole life.
You may be sleeping a long time, but you may not be sleeping well. It could be for a variety of reasons. Blood pressure and allergy meds can affect your sleep cycle.
There is also the matter of sleep apnea which is very common. You may want to go to a sleep center where they monitor your sleep and see if anything unusual shows up. They also have "at home" tests where you wear a sensor and then upload the information and a doctor reviews it. The "at home" tests are not as thorough but are cheaper. Some people need to wear a C-PAP device to help them sleep.
Sometimes even the right pillow can make a difference.
Please keep us posted on how it goes.
