My lower abdomen feels all hard in the middle

I had the last of two operations in January 2013. My lower tummy was quite soft and floppy until after Christmas this year and now it's feels hard. It also feels like their is pressure underneath. Also feels like my hips have grown. I know this all sounds weird but I'm really worried. I am a very active person, cycling, swimming and long walks nearly every day so will this have made more scar tissue. My next CA125 is Thursday and I'm so scared. CT scan clear early Jan so can it grow that quickly?

When I had symptoms like this it was an incisional hernia, (caused through the operation wound opening inside) so it might not be a recurrence.
