It sounds as if you've just let this drift a bit.

its time to get on with hammering out a settlement.

Has there been any mediation so far?

Agree with PP, you have let this drift.
in the kindest way, you need to give yourself a boot up the arse,
no fault divorce is law now, get that process kicked off and get 50% of your equity back and also get some mediation, as your wife cannot stop you from collecting your own belongings from your own house, do you a friend or relatives who can do that for you?

mortgage is a moot point, really you (personally), should continue to pay 50% of the debt, if you default and the house is repossessed it will have a knock on effect on your credit score if you wanted to rent of buy in the future.
and make sure you keep on top of you diabetes

So put it in the hands of a solicitor.
