membrane stripped?

Is getting your membranes stripped the same thing as being checked to see if you dilated or is it not the same thing at all?

Not the same. Having your membranes stripped is much more uncomfortable and serrated the amniotic sack from the cervix. A check only goes up to the cervix and no farther
