Question Radio Failure on the airways

A question re procedures on the airway if you are devoid of contact with the outside world!

Senario 1 : Established on the airway and you (unlikely, I know) suffer a total radio failure. You squark "radio failure" and continue on toward your final approach fix. Your flight plan has you at F340 with a climb F360 over point BLOGS.

As ATC folk would you expect me to climb F360 at BLOGS?

Senario 2: same flight and flightplan but because I am much lighter, I have prior to the RT failure, asked for and been cleared to F380. Do you expect me to descend F360 at BLOGS?

Just wondering?
