Default P-Days and Medical

Well I leave in 1 week and going through a bunch of post and talking o others and had some questions. My main fear as i have made knoown is Dental but nothing can be dome about tat now so we shall see. My main question is what are they testing for at RTC? and what things send you home? Like what if you test positive for and STD? do they check things like prostate stuff again? or is it more of just Drugs and things of that nature. My main fear is something going bad and getting sent home for something stupid so I want to know how severe it has to be before they send you home?

It's mostly drugs (or pregnancy for the females).

don't they do xrays and stuff to? I heard they do that during the first day. I guess to see if someone lied about broken bones or something like that.

X-rays are only done during special physicals for specific ratings, I believe.

Looks like that post was referring to dental x-rays.
They don't do full body x-rays of the thousand or so recruits coming in each week. For some jobs, they will do chest x-rays, but that's about the extent of it.

If you lied about a broken bone, either you're going to grit your teeth and live with it forever, or one day you'll go to medical, they'll see how old it is, and then you'll suffer the consequences.

We didn't get x-rays. They aren't going to spend money on that unless they have a good reason to.
