If this is for a spouse/common-law partner or children, then no. The only medical conditions that can keep one of those from getting PR is if they are a danger to public health. So for example, an active case of tuberculosis would keep a person from getting a visa. But once that condition is cured, then they can retake the medical and get the visa.

If it's for another member of the family class (parent, sibling, ...) then it's possible. It depends on how much the treatment costs, I don't know the details of the condition you listed.

my Father has this type of sickness and he has to go through treatments twice a year. You think it can prevent from starting his application in future?
