What on earth could be causing my nerve pain in my legs?

Have you seen an orthopedic spine specialist or neurosurgeon to review all imaging? Did you have a small fiber neuropathy blood panel and skin punch biopsy of your thigh/ankle?
What country are you in?
It sounds like you have compression/flattening of your spinal cord and/or nerve roots causing your pain symptoms. This can be functional movement symptoms due to your scoliosis.
Do you have family support to go with you to your appointments to help you advocate for the right care, diagnosis, treatment?

I have seen an orthopedic spine specialist and neurosurgeon. Ortho said my MRI isn't that bad and shouldn't be causing this at my scoliosis shouldn't be causing pain. Same with neuro
I am in the USA, east coast
Unfortunately most of my appointments I am only dropped off by my grandmother as my mom's at work, my grandmother mostly just goes along with what the doctor says even when they talk down to me, So I'm effectively alone all of my appointments.
