altissimo troubles

Hello =)
I haven't been able to play my clarinet for about a week because I have been away on vacation. When I got back, I purchased a B45 mp (yay!) and my playing sounds so much better. I also found out that I had previously been playing on the worst possible mp. But anyway, this new mp sounds very clear and is a lot easier to play...but I feel like it is so easy to play that I can't control the air. Because of this, I am having a lot of trouble hitting higher notes. Is there anyway to help this? I use 3 1/2 Mitchel Lurie Premiums: should I get a harder reed? Or is the prob just because I haven't played in a while and need to get back in the swing of things?

Thank you for any advice!
