Legal Question in Medical Leave in Oklahoma

fired while on FMLA

I was on FMLA for a hernia repair surgery. While off I was contacted my my employer and told they would have to let me go because I didnt work enough hours over the last year to qualify for FMLA and that I had used all of my sick leave time. I was not on workers comp and that this injury did come as a result of on the job. Im an EMT. I do think thats why they fired me. I was assured many times over two weeks period that my job was safe and that they was just following procedure. After I get a full release from my Dr, I could come back to work, no problem. After i got my release the story then changed,. My director said that he had to have a meeing with his superiors and see if they would allow me to return back to my job. I then contacted my HR director, whom told me a completely different story. She said I would have to fill out another application and be interviewed again. Which I di because i trusted these people. I worked here for 8 yrs. After jumping through all their hoops and being interviewed, I was called and told because I had a NO-Call, No-Show last year in September they would not rehire me..I cant find a lawyer to help me. What can i do?
