CAA obesity protocol

Hello everyone

i did my class one in February, and an now due to have my six monthly check as per the Obesity protocol. My AME has told me this check has to be done with a cardiologist. I was also told I had to do an “annual treadmill test”

The only mention of doing a treadmill test is if the cardiologist report suggest my risk of dying in the next ten years is over 20%. My risk this year was calculated at 7%. I’ve done this test before when I lived i lived in the north east, but it’s very expensive and I cannot find where it says I have to do one annually.

The wording says....”and an annual exercise test(to CAA protocol) preformed if risk exceeds 20% in the next ten years”

Thanks for any input in advance
