Legal Question in Employment Law in Illinois

job loss during illness

I am currently undergoing chemotherapy and was worried about losing job and health benefits so I went on short term disability for 13 weeks.Now that the time is up I was told there are no hours for me. What are my options if any? Do they have to give back my job? What about my insurance?

Please help me / I know I was forced out of my position due

to my illness. What can I do?

Who can I contact? Where do I go?
