Clinical Trials - OK with the medical??

I am currently saving to eventually start my commercial pilot training. As part of my savings I have done a number of medical trials which have all been approved by the Independent Ethics Committee and are completed at a registered clinical research unit in Manchester (UK).

Can anyone confirm that having done these trials (and doing any future trials) will not compromise my chances of passing the CAA medical due to trials I may previously have done.

My concerns are not that any previous trials will have affected my physical wellbeing but if it was on my medical record and would discount me from eventually becoming a pilot.

Cheers.

p.s. I have emailed the CAA about this but have not heard anything back from them as yet.
