Cluster headache: Cluster headache commonly awakens you in the middle of the night with intense pain in or around one eye on one side of your head. On the other hand, paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea (PND) manifests as severe shortness of breath and coughing that generally occur at night. They are two different conditions. See a neurologist for evaluation. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000786.htm
