I lied at MEPS. Will they go back and look through my medical records?

I Don’t Think You Have A Problem Just Don’t Say Anything Or Admit Anything

I myself joined and then lost my contract because I ruptured my spleen. Even though I didn't get it removed I still had to have a waiver, medical records from my doctor and even a letter from my employer stating that I could perform very strenuous tasks. I also recruited for 3 years and have seen that side of the house. If you tell them everything down to the common cold then everyone that enlists would need a waiver or the bare minimum a lot of medical records. With that being said the condition that you have/had is one that should be mentioned. Tell them the truth get your recruiter the records and if you can get your original doctor to do a letter that he has reevaluated you a feels in his professional opinion that you would be able to do anything that a person that hasn't had your condition it would go a long way.

You are something else.. you will learn army value real quick..

If your heart murmur doesn't require medication then it isn't an issue. However, like someone else posted this is a public site and anyone can read it.

No promises on how what ever branch will respond once they know you liked on your entrance physical at MEPS

So you should have let someone know, and you put this question on a public website. Your regular doctor has no idea what the military allows in and what they don't. For example, eczema is a permanent disqualication that some of my applicants have been told is fine. There is a new medical prescreen that you sign that releases med docs now. Go to your recruiter now and let them know

I agree with everyone else, now that you posted it online I'd say that gives them cause to check your records

Doubt it but I wouldn't be posting stuff like this online

I doubt that anything will come of it. I was found to have a murmur by the nurse officer while I was in Corps school. It didn't get me kicked out of the service and I still did my six years active. It obviously was not an issue for you from the age of 6 so drive on!

79 Romeos never lie.

Since you were advised by medical personnel that it would go away, you didn't actually lie. Apparently they were wrong . . . not your fault. MEPS tested you and found it . . . so what? That is their job and they are proceeding per SOP. They will either say; "Good to go" or "No go." It's out of your hands . . . play dumb and see where it ends up. Not a lie because you were operating on the advice given you by medical professionals. nc
