I do know of a couple of people who are receiving both SSI and SSDI.
I don't know the terms of this or how they are receiving both.
I'm happy that you are eligible SSI/SSDI and that you have enough credits!!! 
Please make sure you have copies of ALL of your medical records and if you can get one---ask your doctors to write a letter to Social Security supporting your application for SSDI/SSI.
If you can... mail copies of your records to SS by certified/signature of receipt.
I have had SS tell me they never recieved my records...but when I told them I had a receipt with signature of person "X" some how my records mysteriously appeared.
I also faxed all printed medical records to SS via my lawyers office.
Even after this...they still told me at my hearing that they had no record of me having hired an attorney (I've had my attorney for about 4 years or so) and they didn't have the up to date records... we faxed and mailed them with signature on receipt.
I wish you the best!!
Abbie
