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

Sounds like you are looking for a way to get out because you can't handle it. Who in their right mind would post something like this?!? Man up!!

You should never lie. I can’t tell you how to answer it. But let me put it to you this way. I got discharged and the VA won’t pay me. They claimed I had a pre-existing injury. The only broken bone I had, was falling down stairs at the age of 2 yrs old. I was denied medical when I was discharged at 21. No medical problems with my shoulder. So be careful what you say, post or joke about. It might end up in someone’s report.

My recruiter lied to me too. I doubt yours is the biggest and worse they ever heard. Stay the course.

I guarantee this post will be used against you. Having a heart murmur is not an automatic discharge but it will very much limit your job. You will get several physicals before attending certain trainings and schools. For instance, airborne school requires an EKG done

Some advice since you already asked this on a public website. If you ever do anything wrong don’t volunteer that information

They won’t ask for your medical record unless you tell them

They can’t go through your medical records because that’s protected by a federal act but you shouldn’t lie about something like that as it will cause serious issues for you down the line. My honest recommendation is to not continue forward on this path because even though they say you’ll be okay doesn’t mean you will be. Also as everyone else here has mentioned, they would absolutely know that you lied now which may disqualify you for good from enlisting. Please take your medical conditions VERY SERIOUSLY even if it doesn’t seem like a big deal anymore. If you don’t take care of yourself then no one will.

Have you been through boot camp. If so your potential short coming has been expoited. Its obvious your loyality to serve has over shadowed your personal safety. loyalty selfless service personal coverage. It's safe to say that in the benefit of everyone you defer this and continue your service. In the future maintain your integrity no matter the situation. Serve well soldier.

QUIT TELLING THE WORLD> Shut up and act dumb. tell truth. doc said you would outgrow them Half the world has murmurs i do and got in many years ago

Absolutely they can go back and you would in turn get a discharge that would negatively effect you the rest of your life. Fraudulent enlistment can be a big deal. Every time you file an insurance claim weather it's medical, workers comp, car, home.. etc it goes to a federal data base. This data base follows you your whole life. This is what insurance companies use to process red flags.

I've seen several people get away with lying at MEPS and I have also seen several people get discharged with a fraudulent enlistment. You are rolling the dice.
