Nick,
You may have to jump through the hoops to get the sleep study you want. It's possible that you've developed a central apnea, but that usually occurs more regularly (several times a night, every night) than just once in a while. I think it's more likely (and I'm not a doctor) that it may be the epileptic seizure alluded to in that first link, which may also be why the neurologist wants the other tests done - to either confirm or rule out that possibility. It may just be medically prudent to proceed in this order.
Doc
