I know what CHF and COPD is, and I have a fairly good idea of what an ICD is. I do not share those conditions, but I understand what you are talking about.

The memory problems and the sleep issues may be thyroid related. Have you been diagnosed with hypothyroidism, or had thyroid bloodwork done?

A complete metabolic profile might be worth asking for to see if you have deficiencies in any vitamins or minerals. Also Selenium, magnesium, and vitamin D tests.

Thyroid tests, of course, unless you have done that recently, and are being treated already.
