Tuning

Hi all,
I use a tuner to tune up, but when my middle register is perfectly in tune, the lower register is very flat. Then if I pull out the barrel to compensate for the lower register, the higher register will become sharp..

For example, I have my instrument with me right now and I can play low C in tune, C on the stave in tune, but my high C is sharp - and so are the notes above my high C.

I've noticed with my clarinet it takes a few minutes of warming up to get better in tune, and it is relatively good, I'm just wondering if it's possible I can do something to get all of my notes in tune..?

Thanks!
