Default should you see a doctor again?

YES! The itch might be the easiest thing to address. To let it go until you scratch so hard it bleeds and it continues even w/over the counter products means it's time to see someone for a diagnosis.

What really concerns me is your complaints on the use of your extremities, your gait, the weakness etc. You need to follow up with your surgeon or with someone ASAP.

Don't know whether you may have other disc bulges, MS, RSD (which I believe is called something else now), neuropathies, ...

I just think it's seriously unwise to not seek medical attention at this point. If you live in the USA can you go to a county hospital for a reduced fee?

2 years post surgery plenty can change. Time to be checked out because you have enough symptoms to be of serious concern I think.
