In other words: since you did that already, it is as good as it gets as far as 
LVM is concerned. Now contact your filesystem guru(s). :-)

I am not an expert on that, but if the filesystem is reiserfs, perhaps the -S 
switch of reiserfsck helps? But before you try, better make a backup of the 
current status (something like dd if=/dev/your-vg/your-lv 
of=/your-big-backuppath/bakfile).

good luck,
