Can my boss require an FAF for Panic Disorder?

Context : I had missed some shifts at work due to some panic attacks and I didn't let anybody know I couldn't come into work. My bad, yes. I had explained myself in a follow up email and offered to come into work the next day. However, now my boss is requiring me to get an FAF filled out by my doctor before I come back into work. Is this normal? (I live in Canada, an FAF is a functional abilities form normally used for people who have been injured and can't work) I feel kinda dumb asking this but I've never encountered this issue before, now all off a sudden I'm on my second FAF of the year. Any advice?
