Scar is not flat, what can I do?

I had open RNY on 8/7/02 and have lost 50 pounds so far, I also had a hernia when I had my surgery that they repaired, so my scar runs from my breast bone to my bikini line. The problem is this: my scar is flat from my belly button down, but from my belly button up it starts rising and is pretty pronounced by the time it reaches my breast bone. Its also very tender at times and lumpy like cottage cheese. I go see my surgeon on 11/15/02 and just wanted to know if anybody else has had this problem or if anyone thinks I should be concerned about this.
