Surprise Concurrent Benefits?!?!?!?!?!?!

I was under the impression that I simply did not have the work history to qualify for disability; however, I seem to have gotten both. Whaaaaat? How could this be? My last date insured was in 2021... (my lawyer has not gotten back to me on this yet)

AND I was signed up for Medicare, which is just another thing that makes my head spin. I'm only 29, I didn't plan on doing Medicare things until much later in life. I guess a head start couldn't be a bad thing, but what does any of this mean LOL.

(Have not yet received benefit award letter; I only found out about the approval by checking my benefit verification letter on the SSA portal. Award letter is to come within the next two weeks.)
