Question:
I had a heart attack three years ago. Last fall I had a complete cardio check up and everything is great. Before my HA I was extremely active and I still am. I would very much like to have a tummy tuck and was wondering what specific risks would be involved for me. I take Lipitor and Asprin daily. thanks
Answer:
I would get a stress echocardiogram to confirm your heart is OK, and then go for it!
