Thanks Leadsled. I have already done that for this result.
https://www.legislation.gov.au/Detai...#_Toc399231465
Cardiovascular system
1.9
Has no safety‑relevant heart abnormality
1.10
Systolic and diastolic blood pressures are within limits specified by CASA from time to time in the Designated Aviation Medical Examiner’s Handbook (even if approved drugs are used to maintain the blood pressure within those limits)
1.11
Has no significant functional or structural abnormality of the circulatory tree

None the wiser I called Casa avmed. They could not give me any clearer picture and in fact I had to direct them to the above clause in the legislation. Essentially they said go get a medical and we will review it when we receive it. Clear as mud and very Yes Minister.
Not impressed with the response.
Your response and that of Cloudee assuring me many CPL flying with pm's gives me hope. Thanks.
