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

There are some who will tell that they won't check. Maybe they don't, for everyone, but they did check with the family doctor about the misdiagnosis of epilepsy that was my case. I'm thinking that the absolute silliest thing you could have done, is to ask that question on this forum. It's entirely possible that some of the Soldiers you are dealing with at MEPS are on here. Don't read that as I'm condoning it. I'm positive that if you are as concerned as you are, talk to the recruiter or the doctor that is dealing with the issue. The most important thing, in my opinion is that you really want to make sure that your heart is ok. The military is full of activities that will elevate your heart rate and you need to be healthy enough that your heart doesn't fail you. Whether or not you make it into whichever branch you are entering, dude, engage your brain before you take action or speak. Good luck.

Probably will not look.

Recruit mindset.
Tell your recruiter the truth.

I lied, but here we are though years later with a blue ID killin it

you're good bro, just try not to die. i didn't mention having asthma so that i could get in. finished my time without any major probs =D good luck have fun

Ethics aside, has your heart murmur dissipated? If not you've put yourself, and potentially others, at an unnecessary risk.

Kind of surprised I didn't see this mentioned anywhere.

You ain't the first, you won't be the last. If everyone who joined was 100% honest about their medical conditions or health, we wouldn't have anyone serving.

You do understand this is public.

You have to anticipate that a full review of all relevant military records will be done in connection with what is going on right now. If, in fact, you did have an extremely casual relationship with the truth while at MEPS, I question the wisdom of saying so on a public forum such as this. Clearly, I am not in possession of all the facts but you might be well served by getting out in front of this and getting some legal advice as to whether the military can pursue a fraudulent enlistment criminal charge under these circumstances.

Hey buddy, good news for you. When I enlisted in the Marine Corps back in 1988, I was up front about my heart murmur. The only thing they made me do was take a short ECG, then when I got to Parris Island they made sure I had two red stripes on my yellow PT shirt.

Apart from that, it was business as usual. Age 51 now, and still doing great. I wouldn't worry about it all. Enjoy your enlistment, try to avoid alcohol and tobacco, stay fit and be safe :)

For future purposes, try to be upfront as much as possible, but don't let the grumpy old lifers shame you into anything, my old great Uncle Bob was courtmartialled four times from 1932 to 1963 and still had a successful career as a Master Sergeant, including the time he served with Chesty in Korea.
