I am a mother of 5. 2 of them c section. I also have lost around 100 pounds. I am thinking of getting a tummy tuck and possible liposuction or lift of my thighs. I also have MS and wonder what extras as a Dr you do during or after surgery to help prevent me from having an exacerbation?

Answer: Be conservative with a tummy tuck MS Thank you for your question. Before seeing a plastic surgeon, you should discuss this thoroughly with the doctor who treats your MS; he/she and your plastic surgeon can work together to try and avoid an exacerbation of your MS. I would probably be somewhat conservative in my approach to make things as easy on you as possible. With a 100 lb weight loss, I doubt that you have anything to liposuction, so, it would most likely be a thigh lift but I would not do it at the same time as the tummy tuck. Hopefully, the weight loss was intentional and not due to your condition or something else which may preclude plastic surgery at this time. Good luck.
