Can any one in HR please help me?

I work in a meat processing plant and I am in the union. I had surgery on my foot and my three months of FMLA are up. They told me I would be fired if I don't come back in time. I have a doctors note saying I can not return when they want me to return. I am currently wearing a special open toe boot to protect my foot. I can't not wear any shoes. What should I do, can they fire me for that reason. My union rep said he can't do anything for me. I am really woried cause I really need my job.
Answer:
You need to talk to a lawyer ... sue. If you need a job that bad, then I would tell my Dr. I have to go back to work ... how can I minimize doing more damage?

Wow you are in a pickle. Poor thing. Foot surgery and someone forcing you to come back to work or else your fired. Well your health is more important than any job but.. you need the job to pay off for it! I'm thinking that if they don't care you should quit. I mean do you LOVE that job or not? Start looking through the paper or something to find a job that doesn't involve standing all day. Meet the manager. Talk to them about your situation. I am sorry about your foot. Hope you get to felling better.
