I don't see that anyone has mentioned the instrument....do others play your instrument in tune? Is it the same one you had back when, or did you pick up another?

I'm of a certain age too, and I developed embouchure dystonia on horn. I had to change my embouchure, and in order to play, I cannot engage the muscles of my upper lip. I have extreme difficulty getting up to pitch with my slides all the way in. So it is possible that lack of muscle strength is a factor in your case, based on my experience with brass embouchure.
