Mouthpiece maybe?

Hi,
So I got my Vito clarinet back from the shop yesterday, and my playing seems to be even worse than when I sent it in. My thoughts were it could be my mouthpiece {B-45} since I've been having problems playing it since I got it early December, or my ligature {Standard $8 online, I'm waiting fir a reverse Bay to come by mail} or reeds,{Grand Concert Select 3's.}
It seems like I really have to push my air and am working way too hard. After about 15 minutes of play, I have to swab, and then after another fifteen it just becomes unbearable to play.
Has anyone else ever had a problem like this?
