Have you tried taking something to help you sleep? Sometimes, some of the over the counter stuff, such as Benadryl, Dramamine, etc. can help you get to sleep and stay there. Benadryl helps with the congestion too and it usually causes sleep as a side effect. These drugs (that are intended for other purposes, however) usually don't let you get into REM sleep, but that is normally when a cluster will awaken you.
Worth a shot. Sleep is a precious commodity when you cycle is peaking like that.
Hang in there, friend.
