Default Sleep apnea & aneurysms

Ten yrs ago I had a ruptured brain aneurysm. Two weeks prior to my aneurysm I had a sleep study test - no apena.
Fast forward to this past April - I met with a new neuro who specializes in strokes. Right off he sent me for a sleep study test. It turns out I have the rarer of the two sorts of apena - central apnea. Basically my brain is forgetting to have me breathe while I sleep......and it's fairly severe.

The CPAP machine helps - still getting used to it. Anyone else have anything similar?
