Your seizure may qualify as a "disability", affording you protection under the ADA and FCRA, and if your employer used that as a factor in terminating your employment you may have a claim. Review this with a lawyer if you suspect that your seizure was a factor in the decision to terminate your employment. Thereafter, you may file a charge with the EEOC or Human Rights Commission.
