Sounds about right. I doubt if using a higher minimum is going to bother your sleep once you are asleep...it's already pretty much going up there and staying up there anyway.
Now going to sleep with a new minimum might take a bit of adjustment. It does for some people and others it doesn't bother at all.
And others sometimes find out that it actually "feels" better. Go figure.
About the only thing I can ever say with absolute certainty is that there's never any absolutes when it comes to this cpap therapy stuff.

Hi Puglover333 ~~
I was so excited that I was able to comprehend and apply so much from your thread.
I have increased my minimum by just a little and MOST IMPORTANTLY I understand
(or have a partial comprehension of) ---- WHY I am chosing to increase.
~~~another worthwhile day of learning here on CPAPTALK.
Thank you Puglover333 for allowing others to learn from your experience alongside you.
I am so looking forward to seeing how that slightly higher pressure 'feels' going
to sleep tonight... and what SleepyHead shows tomorrow morning.
...and for the zillonth time ... Thank You to all the GOOD GUYS who are willing to teach.
