If that's the entire contract I don't see anything in there promising that you'd be successful at the job or that your duties would be one thing or another or that they wouldn't change for the better or for the worse.



Not successful at all. Any time you accept any job there is always the possibility that the job will change in ways that you don't like. That's how work works. I've had it happen to me lots of times. My recourse was (as is yours) to find another job elsewhere.



I don't think anybody will buy it since it's a pre-existing condition and everybody gets stress on the job.

But if you feel that the job stress exacerbated the diabetes you are welcome to consult a workers compensation attorney.

Bottom line, I think you are stuck with the one year requirement unless your employer fires you. And I suggest you be real careful about giving him a reason because he might just sue you for the relo anyway if he suspects that you just slacked off to get yourself fired.
Or lays you off as part of the restructuring in the merger.
