Too Soon For Surgery?

Some are suggesting complications Tameka Foster suffered during a 'routine' liposuction are the result of her having surgery too soon after her last pregnancy. Some random NY cosmetic surgeon said,"The general feeling is no abdominal surgery should be performed within eight weeks because of the distension and inflammation of the abdomen/uterus due to pregnancy. [Women] should wait at least three months postpartum before undergoing any type of procedures to the abdomen... They would need to get clearance from their OB/GYN and internist."

According to reports, Tameka, 37, suffered a heart attack while being anesthetized but was revived in less than a minute by heart massage. She was placed into an induced coma before being transferred into an intensive care unit. She is currently recovering in a Sao Paulo Hospital.
