But for some strange reason I can go soooo much higher than I could before and with little to no warmup. Dont get me wrong, it really sucks that I can't play anything mid/low range and my senior year in high school when I'm first chair and should have ton of solos will be ruined, but its neat to be able to hit a double C after 10 seconds of warmup when the highest i'd ever gone before that was a G, and only if I was perfectly warmed up.

It really sucks. Its so frustrating because I'm a good player... not bragging or anything I'm just good. I know I should be playing this music so easily and I just CANT. So frustrating when you go and try to hit some simple melody and you are just all over the place. Makes me feel out of control and angry.

/sigh anyone else ever been on accutane and had to go through sucking at trumpet?
