I am goin to take the D3 in the morning tomorrow. I haven't started the calcium...,. just have a erry feeling about it, I was looking at labs last Yr and my Calcium levels were perfect. I just don't know if I need it... is it a must just because my dr, said to take it, se hasn't checked what my calcium level is.

IMO you must, must, must take SOME calcium with vitamin D. Vitamin D regulates calcium but it must have some calcium along with the vitamin D or your blood calcium levels can rise and you may get hypercalcemia.

And, of course, you should always take magnesium with calcium.
