You may be the victim of disability discrimination, but I need some additional details: 1) how many employees does your employer have?  2) do other employees also get sent home for no reason? 3) have you ever been disciplined or received a poor performance review? In order to qualify for protection under the American's with Disabilities Act, you have to be able to perform the essential functions of your position with or without accommodation.  Are you able to perform the duties of your position? The employer is not allowed to single you out because of your disability.  You are entitled to the same terms and conditions of employment as everybody else.
