Anyone wake feeling exhausted after seemingly dreaming all night

Your doctor may be right about rare disorders as there often is not a lot of research done, but that doesn't mean that you should stop looking for answers.
As it seems like this stress of sleep interruption is problematic for you, it certainly might be helpful to get a second opinion on this problem.
Is the sleep specialist that you see part of a large medical center? These facilities are more research-oriented and have medical professionals who are great at solving hard-to-treat problems. I'm thinking of a university medical school or a multidisciplinary health care center like Mayo.
Would you consider having someone else take a look at this with you?

I live close to Rochester Mayo clinic and asked for a referral to Mayo sleep medicine I spent probably an hour with a sleep psychiatrist explaining symptoms, diagnosis and meds tried. After all that he said well you have already done everything that he would suggest and that was it.
My whole point in asking the question is to see if dreaming disorders are really that rare, unreported or misdiagnosed. Maybe chronic fatigue syndrome is a sleep disorder?
