In November of 2016 I was dx'd with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome and I am on 12.5 mg of metoprolol to slow my heart rate. I get dizzy often and my heart races still but I want the Tummy Tuck. I'm down to an 18 from 24 hoping to lose more of course but it seems that my belly pulls giving me pain in my back and lower abdomen. I also have fibroids so that could also be the abdomen issue.

It is not uncommon after TT with muscle plication to have pains in the muscle or irritation of the muscle as the muscle goes through the repair stage and nerves regenerate. These should lessen with time.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA
Thanks so much for your question. It is safe to have multiple procedures done within a reasonable period of time. You just want to use common sense and make sure that you're fully recovered from the first procedure prior to starting another recovery process. As long as both providers are OK ...
Thank you for your question. I would suggest calling your plastic surgeons office so they can take a look at you. It may be nothing but it never hurts to be checked out. Good luck hope all ends up well.
