Tummy Tuck Despite Kidney Problems and Previous Heart Surgery?

April 4, 2009
Asked By:eyan in united kingdom

I had an aortic valve replacement 5 years ago. I also have kidney problems due to SLE (Systemic lupus erythematosus). I have terrible stretch marks due to past fluid retention and a combination of Predisilone medication. Would it be possible for me to have a Tummy Tuck? I am really desperate to remove these disgusting marks.
