Basically, before I submitted my application I was confused as CIC offered conflicting advice regarding medicals. Some sources said to do it beforehand (like in the document checklist), while on of their pages clearly stated that medicals are usually performed after the VO says so. So, I emailed London and they told NOT to do my medical until they said so. Which I now know is nonsense. Thanks London! Anyway, hoping it doesn't slow things down too much. Instead of my medical form, I put a copy of that email in with my application.
