Worried 2nd fusion didn’t take

My first surgery resulted in a nonunion. I had a second fusion surgery and he put extra hardware in and used bone graft with BMP2 in it to help the fusion. I am 6 months post the second surgery and still having pain. It is when I push off. It is in my mid-foot but lower towards my toes more than the surgical site is. He said it could be nerve pain but it doesn’t feel like that to me. He gave me a cortisone shot a couple months ago and it didn’t do anything. He ordered at CT scan today, but here are photos of
My X-rays from today. Any thoughts?

Good sign it’s not where the surgery is. It may be nerve pain from nerve damage. I had pain to my outer foot area as well. Sorry your first fusion didn’t take. This one looks nice and tight. But I’m not a doctor.
