You should consult a local attorney. I'm in Illinois. I can't advise you on your local laws or procedures. But you should get a second opinion, even if you have to pay for it yourself. You need to know what is wrong with you even if it is not related to your work activities. If it is then you have a better claim if you choose to pursue a case.
