Someother tips you can use while changing field type.
1. Take data backup and update them back after field type change
2. Create new field with new data type and move data from old field to new field. and hide (FLS)/remove old field after migration (Need to consider field API Name usage)
Always try migrating changes in your sandbox before migrating anything to production.
