I get involuntary deep single gasps for air several times an hour every day. i have asthma, sleep apnea and was just diagnosed with increased intracranial pressure. these weird gasps happen without warning and scare everyone around as well as myself?

Sleep disorder/Neuro: The increase in intracranial pressure must be further evaluated and treated. This may be a major cause of the respiratory pattern and contribute to your apnea. Your sleep report may be uploaded during a virtual consult for review.
