Hello,
Just do what your surgeon tells you to do. I am 8 years out and my vitamin D was a little low, and it is because I don't eat a lot of things that are fortified with it. Also, I had to switch my calcium (I was taking vi active, loved the taste and it was kind of a treat to take it). Tell you surgeon what calcium with vitamin D you are taking and he will tell you what he wants you to take.
Also my tailbone hurt initially for about the first year. I was 400 lbs and had a lot of cushion around my tailbone and one I lost the weight it was very tender for a long time. But I do not have any problem now.
Take care
