There is no privacy when applying for immigration. It can lead to problems in future. Do you think this won't come out if you don't tell doctor. Medical is done solely for this purpose. Since you have already submitted the file it is better to rectify this.
Since you have appointed a representative you have to tell them and ask them to send a web form.

The doctor indicating the “everything was low” was probably indicating your viral load was low. For anything related to T cells you want a high count not a low count. IRCC will want you to show that you are on a treatment regimen and that your viral load is undetectable. Since you will be starting your treatment while also trying to move to Canada I would suggest selecting a drug therapy that is also available in Canada and that will fall under the excessive demand amount for 5 years in Canada (approx 120k over 5 years). Your doctor should be able to help you and prices of drugs what medications are available in Canada can be found online. Healthcare is primarily provincial so would look up drug availability and cost in Saskatchewan.
International students in Saskatchewan should have access to the provincial health plan when they start studying full-time and if they continue to study full-time. You will need to look into whether you are registered for a healthcare extended benefit plan through your school fees. If attending a well known public university/college then they also likely provide access to an extended healthcare benefit plan that would include a pharmacare. You would have to look up the yearly limit form for drug claims. They tend to be lower than other plans offered for example from employers became students tend to be young and relatively healthy.
You may receive a request for further testing or information after your medical from IRCC asking for proof that you are on a drug regimen and that your viral load is undetectable. If it isn’t a formal request I would send in proof myself via webform when you do testing to show the treatment is effective and that your viral load is undetectable. You can also include details of your plan to receive your medication every 3 months via courier to Saskatchewan from your home country. That you have a friend or family member that will send you your medication every three months via X courier and that it will cost X amount. You should show how the cost of medication and courier will be affordable based on the amount you have shown for savings in the first year and for subsequent years as a student. You may want to consider saying that you will reserve the pharmacare amount from your extended benefit plan for any unexpected medical issues that may occur while in Canada like bacterial infection in your throat, skin rash or infection, etc.
[/QUOTE] Since you just had your medical at IOM, I believe you will be receiving updates from IOM on the next steps you will do. Don't worry, I, too, had been in that situation and now I am here in Canada and will be starting my second semester.

In my case, during the initial screening, I already informed them that I have HIV. Then after the medical, the doctor talked to me about it.
