Forced sick leave 3 mos anmd then long term disability for 3 mos to hire consultants to do my job when I was performing well

I was forced to go out on sick leave for 3 months, and then asked to apply for long term disability for 3 months so the consultants from Atlanta could help with my job. I was reassured that at the end of 6 mos I would be allowed to come back-same job-same capacity-same pay. If I did not agree to do this, I would be fired on the spot. I did this to protect my job. Before the 3 mos of sick leave was up, they sent me a letter and said that my job was no longer as I knew it. They had hired someone else in my position. In ten years I have only had one review which was excellent. I asked continuously for a semi annual or quarterly review so I could improve on any weak areas in my job. I was told that I did nnot have any weak areas, therefore I was not given any reviews.

Additional information
The Board of Directors seemed very pleased with my work. I am not sure what she told them, as she at first said it was a Bd. decision, then the Exec.
Bd.. decision, then finally it was a staff decision. I was told that she is telling the staff that I retired which is not true. I feel that defamation of character has been used as well in the letter I was sent to let me know that I no longer had a job.
