It is unlikely. It becomes more likely when you can show that you have been to neurologist after neurologist and have tried many things. It becomes more likely when you have a letter from one of those doctors stating just how disabling they are AND how it would impact your ability to work. You need to show specifics, the vomiting, etc. It also becomes more likely if you are depressed because of your chronic migraines, because depression is more likely to be awarded SSDI.
Definitely get a lawyer to take your case. They take people much more seriously when they have a lawyer.
The SSDI process goes something like this. You are denied twice. Everyone is denied twice, except those with terminal illnesses. There are forms you fill out to appeal. After the second time you go to an informal hearing. This is where the majority of people get awarded SSDI. This whole process takes years. They want to wait people out. Some states, not all, allow people who are applying for SSDI to get on welfare while this whole process is going on. You pay them back with your retroactive check IF you get awarded Soc. Sec. If you do not get awarded Soc. Sec., they eat the cost. After you have applied for SSDI at your local Soc. Sec. office, go to the local welfare office to see about services they offer.

Are all levels of scoliosis considered chronic or just the really major ones?
Scoliosis is not considered chronic or acute based on severity of the curve. Chronic implies long term, so if you have scoliosis that is untreated then it is chronic. If you have a functional scoliosis that is improved through conservative treatment, or severe structural scoliosis that is improved through surgery, then it is no longer chronic. Of course, the more severe the scoliosis at the start, the less likely it is to be "fixed" and thus the more likely it is to become chronic.
