I lied on my DOT physical and now I am worried.

So I made the choice to lie on my DOT physical. I lied about not having an over night stay in the hospital, even though I have and now I’m seriously second guessing it. How screwed am I? I haven’t technically finished the exam because I have a hearing exemption form that I have to get filled out and brought back to finish and get the DOT physical card. But after finding out that I could get 5 years in jail or a $250,000 fine, I’m seriously kicking myself in the ###. Since I didn’t finish the exam, could I possibly go somewhere different and get another DOT physical and actually tell the truth or since I finished the procedures there, am I already entered into the database. You ask why I lied? I have no idea. I just saw everyone talking about the DOT physical and saying lie and I did. I’m soo scared. This will not only affect me, but my wife and kids. Please for the love of God, someone help me.

 

So it would be a bad idea to retake the test at another place? It’s not only the possibility of ruining my wife and kids life that’s got the fire under my ###, the guilt of lying is eating me alive. I’m not typically a liar, but I saw people saying to, so I did. But it’s not their fault, it’s my fault.
