I originally went to the doctor and a foot issue. The doctor I saw at that time said that I had heal spurs. After weeks of on & off missing work and steroids, I went to a specialist. The specialist diagnosed me with stress fractures in my heal. My employer started counting my 12 weeks with the first diagnosis but I did not have paperwork completed for FMLA until I was seen by the specialist. Is this legal? Are they calculating my time off correctly? They are telling me that I must return to work tomorrow to keep my job and same pay. They said that they could put me in another department for less pay. From what I have read, they aren't allowed to do that. Please help me face the right direction with these issues. Thanks..
