Bill,
This is not a joke, how long have you been playing in the Orchestra? I would you suggest go see a doctor and check for your ears. According to my experience, one should hear all the instruments including his own. Tell some more about it.

> I posed this question about six months ago, but want to ask for advice once again. I experience problems playing in the orchestra when I cannot hear myself. In other words, my playing skill (embouchure, intonation, dynamics) is lost when I lose my "feedback" (i.e., my ears). Does anyone else experience this? I really flounder (easy on the fish jokes!!!) when the brass takes an ff, and I produce a squeak or lose pitch. I can't believe my playing is so dependent on my *hearing* myself play.
