Can I get a tummy tuck with an epigastric hernia?

gohawks7845
I have a Epigastric hernia. What causes this? I had a 12.5 lb baby 27 years ago and carried it all in front. Could that be the reason? Also. To have that fixed will they tighten the abdominal muscles? Can it be coupled with a tummy tuck?
