Re: work comp
It's certainly covered by workers comp -- what it sounds like your employer is saying is that you have no more family medical leave time left -- that may or may not be true -- it depends, in part, on what's written in your employment manual. Even if you have no family/medical leave left, the employer is required to accommodate your disability -- which could include giving you another leave of absence. It makes sense for you to talk to a lawyer -- feel free to contact me at my email below or go to my website for my phone # (not allowed to post it here.)
Good luck.
