You can be fired or just about any reason but in your case, if you disclose to your employer that you can still perform your position with some accommodation then you can be protected under the Americans With Disabilities Act. Finally, this does not mean that you get a doctor's note; rather, it is more sophisticated procedure and your should seek legal advice from an employment law attorney not just a quick Q & A from a website.
