[linux-lvm] Can not write to volume

Tonight I noticed an inability to write to my LVM volume.  I see the following 
errors in syslog

Apr 13 00:45:18 localhost kernel: ReiserFS: warning: is_tree_node: node level 
65535 does not match to the expected one 1
Apr 13 00:45:18 localhost kernel: ReiserFS: dm-0: warning: vs-5150: 
search_by_key: invalid format found in block 43843584. Fsck?

I am unsure as to what info might be relevant here so I will paste some 
hopefully without being too long winded.  Is it recommended to run a fsck on 
this?  How might I fix the issue?
