I don�t remember the specific post though it sounds like you are talking about the Valsalva (SP?)condition. This is a common condition and unfortunately has destroyed many good brass players. There is good information about this in the book where various people do a bit of Arnold Jacobs hero worshipping (sorry not sure of the name of the book). Go to the part that Richard Erb wrote. Good luck!
