low hot water pressure at the shower/tub

Hi,
I have a serious problem in one of my bathrooms. the cold water pressure of the shower/tub is fine. but when i turned the knob towards the hot, the pressure drops all of a sudden, too low to take a hot shower. the sink 3 feet away has both excellent hot and cold water pressure. i suspect some is wrong with the shower switch. i took the knob off and tried to see what's wrong, but i didn't see anything removable from that point on.

everywhere else in the house is good.
please help!

thank you
aaron
