Do You Think Crestor Dose Should Be Increased With Plaque Levels Totaled 360 With 345 In One Artery ?

My plaque levels totaled 360 with 345 in one artery. My creatine kinase level went to 290 when I was on lipitor. I switched to 5 mg of crestor every other day and my creatine kinase is now 263. Do you think my crestor dose should be increased? Thanks.
