Under FMLA, qualified employees are entitled to 12 weeks in a year of unpaid leave in certain situations relating to personal and family health. You are not entitled to any more than those 12 weeks in a year. It is therefore perfectly legal for your employer to tell you that, after you exhaust your FMLA, you will be expected to have perfect attendance.
