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

You signed a release at MEPS that gives them permission to request all medical records back to birth. That being said, if someone wanted to make an issue of it, you could be charged with fraudulent enlistment and they could release you from service, fine you, or imprison you. It's more important for you to ensure that you're healthy. As a MEPS medic I've seen this many times. There are waivers for almost everything. It'll be up to your command or medical provider to determine that path.

My recruiter lied and put that I was Hispanic

It’s been easy in the past to pull a fast one, but with more and more hospitals and clinics using interconnected medical record systems it’ll be easier and easier for doctors to find other records.

In reality you’ll probably get a waiver and be fine. But you clearly know that’s not the issue, but rather the lie. From here on out, Especially when it comes time to do your SF 86 for a security clearance, keep it honest.

Really, as a medical officer, our job is to protect you and the soldiers you serve with. It’s no good to sneak in with a medical condition that will endanger you or your unit if it rears its ugly head at the wrong time. Recruiters seem to forget a bit too often that these standards exist for a reason.

They are looking at your medical records now.

At 6 years old you were told you would grow out of it. Did you know before meps that it did not? Because it sounds like you thought it was gone but meps found out your Dr was wrong. From over a decade ago.

John, Wow... your simple question turned into a few long posts and a couple of rants. Dude, don't sweat it. They found it, they will check it and if it is a minor issue, you will be cleared my medical and on to choosing an MOS. I was asked if I ever smoked weed... no was the answer and they never found any ;"^}. I was just gunna do 3-years and get out... 22-years later, I retired. Charlie Mike young man and keep chasing dreams.

Just say your forgot.

Don’t ask, don’t tell, and don’t worry about it.

I was a counselor. First: don't ever lie. Second: if you had a heart condition and went to basic you could be seriously injured or death. Third: you should always tell anything even if recruiter says you never had prob in past, played sports because the MEPS doctors will hear it anyway.
Fourth: I would have suggested after your doctor cleared you that you got a waiver.
Fifth: your platoon would be put at risk you lying and all of sudden your mission is incomplete because they are trying to save your life. Do you think any team player would trust you after someone found out you lied.
Do it the legal way, most likely you would get a waiver. Sane as asthma after 12 attack I'd disqualified. Remember the military not for everyone, and you need to be world wide deployable at a spare of moment.

Yes, the cardio Dr your seeing is a specialist and will pick up the heart murmur right away. But maybe waiver it to.

Good luck, be honest..honor is a reward to being a team player.

PS I treated everyone that I enlisted as relative, never lied to them, always told them to pick a trade to go into so if your injured in combat you have something to fall back on. No one ever came back stating I lied to them. But did say their happy I was their Counselor.

At this point it does not matter, just do not lie to the cardiologist. Tell them the whole truth. Either way it is up to the doctor and your service if you join. Someone will have to waive the issue for you to join.
