Sounds about right to me. You can experiment on the liters per minute---usually ends up somewhere between 12-15. You do a non rebreather mask---the one with the bag underneath?

Hi,
My doc told me to use 8 liter, From what i've read here, 12-15 is better but it cant hurt to try at 8, bottle will last longer.

Conventional wisdom says 8 - 10 lpm for 10 to 15 minutes. Actual experience here shows 12 - 15 lpm for 10 to 20 minutes through a non-rebreathing mask works best. A non-rebreathing mask is fairly worthless below 10 lpm. Most people will tell you if it doesn't work in 20 minutes, it's not going to work.
