My suggestion would have to be to make an appointment with your primary care doctor for some bloodwork. It sounds as if you need to sit down with all of your medications and your primary and discuss options on how to improve your quality of life. Until you have been recently diagnosed it wouldn't be prudent for me to attempt to diagnose why you cannot sleep.
Wishing you the best of luck.
