Before trying fsck
If you have a broken filesystem, you should probably look at the recovery or repair tools or you can read Marc MERLIN's page that explains the different ways to check and fix a btrfs filesystem.
In a nutshell, you should look at:
btrfs scrub to detect issues on live filesystems
look at btrfs detected errors in syslog (look at Marc's blog above on how to use sec.pl to do this)
mount -o ro,recovery to mount a filesystem with issues
btrfs-zero-log might help in specific cases. Go read Btrfs-zero-log
btrfs restore will help you copy data off a broken btrfs filesystem. See its page: Restore
btrfs check --repair, aka btrfsck is your last option if the ones above have not worked.
