Got fired for not taking drug test

My best friend got me fired for refusing drug test i got injured off the job and missed 2 days of work i had told my friend which he was my lead man that i got hurt on the way home from work, I was on a contract job and had no insurance, I pulled my back and couldnt walk. So I gor medical attention on my own terms and let my lead man know that Im a need a couple days off, he told me I need to be there asap. So I let him know that if Im not back to work within those 2 days I needed off to take his own actions and do what they got to do. As I rested he text me and told me he filed a injury report, Now how can he file a injury report I had never gave him nor did he know how or what my injury was, at that It wasnt on the job site, So how can he file a injury report if I didnt get injured at work. Then he tells me H.R wants me to see the company doctor due to it being policy by the company. Im still resting and I tell him tell H.R I dont need to see a doctor I seen one on my own with my own money that I should be back at work the next day which was my 2nd day that I had asked for. So I return to work, my injury is gone I feel good Im working and an hour before my job is done. They call me in the office and tell me I need to go see the companys doctor to check my back to see if Im ok that its policy. As I arrive to docs offics they ask me what Am I there for, I tell doc they sent me here to get my back checked, Doc responds with, Did you get injured at work, I told him No, He ask me again are u hurt I said No, He said what are u here for, I told him I do not know. He responds with Oh I see herw your here for a drig screen, Tha being said I got really upset and affended becuase I do my job well my attendance was perfect beforw my off the job injury and management can tell anyone my job is well done to perfection No errors, for me to get lied to yet take a drug screen. So I refused and called my lead man and told them whats the drug screen about, he had nothing to say. So I told him I dont feel good Im upset can I go home theres no point of me going back to work a 15 mnt drive after I had punched out before I went to see doc. I told em Im going home I refused the drug screen. He agreed fine see you tomorrow. Next morning HR emails me tells me not to go in saying my lead man told them I quit. So they terminated me for quitting? Does anything here sound like it makes sense to any of you. I loved my job and hurt that my best friend lied and betrayed me and thru me under the bus. When alll these actions where lies and the report he made they wouldnt give me a copy of it , I wanted to see the report I never gave or never got hurt at the job or did he know how I got injured for him to make a non existing report I never made or gave my consent for him to file.

Unfortunately if you get injured on the job (which I know didn't happen) it's mandatory to get a drug test. Sounds like a set up.
