Am I candidate for lipo or tummy tuck?

Forceful2775
I am 33 and 4 years in remission of breast cancer. I struggle with fatigue and getting proper exercise. I have removed 7 lymph nodes under my right arm and deal with chronic inflammation. I I I strongly desire a body that makes me look and feel good in a bikini . I never had any children but my tummy says different. I am terrified of more scarring and any complications but want to do surgery that actually makes me look and feel good about myself. Please help.
