In other words, sometimes I'll move the saddle back and down, especially if I'm going to be doing some heavy climbing, front and up if on the flats and perhaps a shorter ride.
I'd agree with the others on your fit issues, though. Get your seat position down first, adjust your handlebar height up and/or back to get some pressure off your hands and arms.
Saddle height and fore/aft are coupled, moving it back increases height. It should be lowered a bit to restore your height setting, unless you need to change the height for a purpose, like you say.
