Meron lang ako nabasa na cause of refusals of applications for permanent visas in 2015-2016 due to not meeting Migration Health requirements isa ang hypertension at renal disease - as they will exceed thresholds for healthcare cost in the healthcare system over all, may limit lamang to claim up to 51000 AUD to subsidize the patient, if lalagpas po dito it fails meeting their health requirement. The MO who assesses each applicant may exercise a waiver by letting applicants sign an undertaking.
Hopefully the above is not true in your case.

If controlled naman with medication it might not be too severe? Alam ko they look at the potential costs on the Australian healthcare for your condition, as mentioned by @Ozdrims so it varies by severity of the case. Try getting clearances from the doctors helping handle your condition, in case that could help.
I don't know exactly the possible consequences of not declaring the condition, but personally I think you'd risk having them find out na you knew about it prior to/during visa application and you intentionally failed to declare... and you might risk your position. Not saying that to scare you, just to let you know the risks. All the best.
