Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I can understand your concern. As you are already taking calcium tablets, I'd suggest you to take vitamin D sachets every week after consultation. No need to take vitamin K. Kindly do Bone mineral density. Take calcium rich diet. Kindly consult with rheumatologist for severe pain. He may start tablet Etoricoxib. Do regular physiotherapy.

Take care.
