I am in luck, I rebooted and fsck no longer complains about the size of
the physical blocks that differ from the filesystem so now it's running
and I believe it should be successful. I expected the reboot would sort
this out after I saw the lvdisplay was giving the right size but that
fdisk -l was not. I can still mount my partition and access the files so
now I expect fsck to get rid of the files that were on the dead disk and
which are now obviously giving I/O errors.

important: some GC heap dumps and some backup of phone sd card.
I made a backup of what was important now and so I'll be trying fsck.
I hope it will work because I don't feel like rebuilding my lvm and
copy everything again and lose what I consider not important.
Thanks.

If you get anything back from this file-system I would be impressed.
Losing 200GB of a file-system isnt something small that can just be
"made up" to restore the data. The only options I can think of would
be to (1) restore from backup, (2) copy as much data as you can off
onto a new location, (3) fsck. #1 is probably the best in your
situation, however if that's not an option you should try to save as
much data as possible (#2).
a fsck should be able to repair the file-system back into a "good"
state, but you'll likely lose a lot of data. Can you show us the full
error output you're getting when you try to fsck?
Also, keep in mind that this is an LVM mailing list... not a
filesystem one. Perhaps you could get some help in #ext4 on the OFTC
IRC.
