So which was it? You were unemployed or you were disabled? Did you report your disability to EDD or did you lie and continue to claim that you were unemployed?
If you were disabled at any time while receiving unemployment benefits, you were no longer eligible for those benefits until you were no longer disabled. Any money collected at and after that point you were not lawfully entitled to receive, and that money should be voluntarily returned to the State to avoid criminal prosecution.
To be eligible for UI benefits, you must certify, under penalty of perjury (a felony), that you are (1) able to work and (2) actively looking for work. If you are disabled, you are (1) unable to work and (2) would not be actively looking for work.
You may be entitled to file a late claim for SDI benefits, but that is a determination only EDD can make. SDI has a particular look back period and a relatively short benefit period. If you have not been employed at all in the past two years, you are probably ineligible for SDI benefits at this time, unless they agree to reevaluate both your unemployment and disability periods.
