You need to contact a disability lawyer immediately. Look here at attorneypages.com for starters. You have not given any info as to the type of work you do or the disability (full or partial) or treatment, etc., but that is not necessary to see that something is very wrong here and you need someone on your side to help sort it out and protect your rights. The type of proof you will need will be explained by your attorney. Good luck.
