Premise: I am under the effects of disguise self to look like a human and I am in fact, an elf. I then cast polymorph on myself to turn into a T-rex and then take enough damage to make me lose concentration on polymorph, would I appear to be an elf or human after the spell drops? What if the spell was dropped due to the polymorphed T-rex running out of health?

Only your DM knows for sure, how magic works in their world, so the best answer is probably "try to find out". However, based on the spell description, I would say the Disguise Self should fail after the Polymorph:
You can't change your body type, so you must adopt a form that has the same basic arrangement of limbs.
As a T-Rex you don't have the same arrangement of limbs, so you are no longer eligible target to be affected by the Disguise Self spell effect.
