uhm i do a bit of higher rpm driving, but usually only to shift if i'm racing/showing off to someone haha. But i don't just cruise around casually at over 5k

crusing i never get above 4k, i think 5k is a little high for crusing, try for a week or so just staying under that 5k region and monitor your oil level. if it still goes down then check for leaks, get under ur car and see if there is a any oil on the engine or underbody

I lose a little oil when I do the high rpm driving too. I tend to add a little in between changes.

As for the changes, make sure the car is level when you measure or it won't be consistent.
