I am not sure, but would think if you are involved in a clinical trial there might be some rule that would prevent a person with a high BMI from participation. Your signature says you are already scheduled so I would guess doctor determined you were eligible for participation. You could ask your doctor for a copy of the trial's requirements. Sorry, I don't know the answer, but I hope this helps.
Hugs,
