My stomach is so protruding...

I am one year out from rny. I'm so happy that I did this. I'm down 127 lbs and feel great. I do however have a very protruding stomach from the top to the bottom of my (open rny) incision. I am assuming this is a hernia. I may have had this before just could'nt tell because of being overweight. I have had four children and had no stomach muscles after that. I had a huge separation of the stomach muscles after our last child. Anyway I feel like I look good except this stomach. I have an appt. on May 23,2005 and I'm hoping to get some answers. Did anyone else have such problem? I feel like I look 8 months pregnant. But it is really up high. Needing some answers. I hope this will make a difference in my figure of I can get approved. I look like I have a football for a stomach.
