I lied at meps . I was told I had heart murmur when I was 6 and was told that I would grow out of it little to say I didn’t they found it at meps . I have to go to a cardiologist 3 weeks from now to say if it’s a no go or not . The doctor who found it said it not a big deal and they will let me in . But I’m afraid that they will go back on my medical records and find out I lied . A bunch of others told me to just play dumb . What do you think will they look back on my medical records after finding a heart murmur ?

The cardiologist will decide if you have a murmur and if you do you will be disqualified. They can but will not look back at 12 year old records. They will look at your current state. I would assume that they sent you to a cardiologist because the MEPS doctor heard a possible murmur. From time to time my doctor hears the same thing, but my echo cardiogram and EKG are fine. That will determine if you are qualified.

What was it you choose not to inform the med ? I also believe in a clean conscious ? You feel guilty ? but at this stage if you come clean you will not be recruited/indoctrinated. Worser than being un-physically fit is a liar in the service where lives can depend one day on your credibility ! Learn what a lie can get you into . If you believe you can really meet the challenge of basic/boot camp go for it and keep your mouth close and pray and if you are not mentally or physically fit drop out !

At the end of the day the doctor will make the decision whether you were joining or not

Simple answer... While at MEPS you "Self-Identified" as being Healthy! Hey... Seems to work for everything else.

I am more concerned about your health and dying. I was in a combat unit and the training was very physically demanding. I am not sure that my heart would not have given out had I had a heart murmur.
