Continue to use the CPAP while you have the sore throat and just tough it out. Higher settings on the humidifier may or may not help. Drink more water during the day and before bedtime. Use an alarm (if you need to) and wake every three hours to drink a glass of water during the night. That will probably do you more good than trying to fight the condinsation (rainout) that usually happens when people turn up their humidifiers to higher than normal levels.
