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

Maybe you're just psyching yourself out and thinking you lied because you believe they will believe you lied.

How do they know it was a lie? Did you just forget you had it?

I’ve been a recruiter and I’ve seen how toxic that bunch is. I’ll tell you the same thing that I told every one I’ve my applicants. As a recruiter it is not up to them (the recruiters) to qualify or disqualify you from service. That is why we ask you all of those medical prescreening questions, we make sure that you understand that HIPPA protects your information. It is up to you to remember everything and tell us everything. Only the doctors at MEPS can qualify or disqualify from service. If they find something that you didn’t know about ask about a medical waiver, especially if you play sports and are still active and it doesn’t bother to this day. I hope that everything works out for you.

Think yu will be fine. Heart murmur are common. I do think one lye is as bad as 10...but to speak to yur issue don't worry.

You should have been honest, and face the consequences.but at this point, you can admit you lied, and throw yourself on their mercy, or you can say you forgot...you didn't understand whatever might work. Still, you could have jeopardized your health and the safety of your team mates. Those physical limits are set for a reason. That being said, my eyesight did not meet minimal requirement, and the ophthalmologist did something to slip me through. however, I did not know, so they couldn't stick me.

As a military health care provider, I most certainly check medical records. If no waiver granted at MEPS, I submit to command and let them decide if they want to pursue fraudulent enlistment. Be honest. Request a waiver.

Soooo...let me get this straight...you lied about something in the hopes no one would ever find out. Then went on the internets to ask what to do if anyone finds out this thing you didn't want anyone to find out?

John what are you thinking, this can destroy your life!!

You have to give consent to release your medical records (HIPPA) but it’s not to bright to be putting this online.

"They" cannot review your medical records without your explicit permission (signed consent). There's this law called "HIPAA", and you can find out more about HIPAA here: https://www.hhs.gov/hipaa/for-individuals/medical-records/index.html
