M.S. is likely a disability under the ADA. This determination hinges on several factors that I am happy to discuss with you. If the ADA applied, an employer may not take adverse job action against you because of your disability.
You state that your production manager wants to terminate you: Has he told you this? Has he given you a reason? Has anyone complained directly to you about your doctor visits?
